It's asking for the Debian mirror location to download from, but you gave it a jigdo address so it sounds like it got stuck in a loop.  From the Debian instructions here http://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/:

"At the prompt "Debian mirror", enter
  http://ftp.XY.debian.org/debian/, where
  XY is the two-letter code for your country
  (for example, us, de, uk. See the current
  list of available
  ftp.XY.debian.org locations.)"

Here's the locations link if it doesn't come through on the email: http://www.debian.org/mirror/list 

And finally a great how-to if you haven't seen it yet: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Debian-Jigdo/downloadingyourfirstimage.html.
