Also available as ASCII:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianHistory?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=Debian-announcement-1993.txt
Looks like originally it was meant as a kind of Proto-Sid:
"2) Debian will contain the most up-to-date of everything. The system
will be easy to keep up-to-date with a 'upgrading' script in
the base system which will allow complete integration of
upgrade packages."
Here i see a good argument in case Debian ever discusses to discontinue
the ISO sets with all packages:
"6) Debian will make Linux easier for users who don't have access to the
Internet. [...]"
Happy Birthday Debian !
Have a nice day :)
Thomas

Happy anniversary indeed. 30 years for anything is a significant milestone particularly an all, or nearly all, volunteer project that doesn't have a single person who is the benevolent dictator for life but instead has had a number of elected project leaders over that time. This is very much an accomplishment and all involved may take a well deserved bow. My personal foray into Debian began 24 years ago next month, as I recall. I installed Slink from a pile of floppies onto a castoff IBM Thinkpad 760ED. Most everything worked except for the internal modem and sound as both were tied to a proprietary DSP that never had support added to the kernel. In January 2000 I replaced the by that time obsolete libc5 based Slackware '96 installation on my desktop and was running the soon to be stable Potato in short order. I wish I could say that those original installations had been upgraded and migrated uninterrupted over the intervening years but I did distro hopping yet always came back to Debian and also bumped up to amd64 along the way. Here's to many more anniversaries. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."

Happy Birthday Debian! My open source journey started with Slackware in 1995, then Red Hat from 1996, and then Fedora. I first encountered Debian at a new job in 2007, and switched my desktop to Debian/sid in 2012. I installed my current Debian/sid desktop in April 2017 and it has been rolling ever since, which I consider an extraordinary achievement. Well done Debian! Thank you everyone who keeps Debian going.

I consider Debian to be a major intellectual achievement, Collective, but still a major achievement. My first Linux ran on an IBM PS/2 L40 SX laptop with a monochrome display. I had to recompile part of the kernel to get the 640x480 display to work. That took over 3 hours on that machine. An excellent keyboard. I tried Redhat and SuSE, but finally moved to Debian and never looked back. Happy Birthday Debian ! Roger
