I've noticed this too. I always need to struggle, navigate and wander to
download the right ISO image. If I ever wanted to install
Debian Testing (which I don't), I have no idea how to do
that. Occasionally I don't know I downloaded the wrong image until I
boot the DVD made with it.
My other Debian confusion is all the program sources and how to
enable/disable them. I know of no web page that explains the whats,
where's and why's of this. Fortunately, I'm in several LUGs with
Debian-knowledgeable people, so if I get in a bind, I can get help.
Some time, after I truly understand the ins and outs of Debian
versions, downloads, backports, and the like, I'll write a document to
explain it, clearly, in one place, for the new Debian user.
Thanks,
