Reason?
Installation of a new installation tool for debian that defaulted to
that site as its source.
Note that with the package-get default for packaget-get-remote we run
the same risk. We should somehow have it autoselect from a list of
mirrors. (Maybe include the list of mirrors as part of the
package-get-base file?)
I agree.
