My reason for being interested in anaconda-debian is kickstart, that's the
entire reason, the only reason.
I agree that debian-installer is the way to go for a normal Debian install and
I have done several test installs with it over the past 6 months. However,
AFAIK debian-installer still doesn't support unattended installs (or perhaps
they just aren't documented?).
I can understand progeny's reasons for doing the anaconda port somewhat but I
don't see why they wouldn't have been better served by helped d-i and then
getting it ported to work with redhat. All questions aside, the anaconda
port was apparently done and the work does sound useful as a stop-gap
measure.
