Hello,

I received your email about the latest version of Debian available at 
https://www.debian.org/mirror/list.  However trying to download anything 
from this web link seems to me impossible, unless I attend to a training 
course on how to download files from Debian website.

Keep the good work, but try to make life easier to your users.

Regards,

A. Matos

The paragraph that contains that link starts, "Upgrading an existing
installation ..." That indicates that the link relates to upgrading an
existing Debian installation.

The previous paragraph says, "New installation images will be available
soon at the regular locations." You can download installation media for
Debian 9.3 here: https://www.debian.org/distrib/

After installing with media for Debian 9.3 you can update using the
normal procedures described in the Debian documentation and you will
have an up to date system running Debian 9.4.

If you prefer media for Debian 9.4, you will have to wait for the
installation images to be made available at the same link I gave.

Regards,

-Roberto

Yes, you're right, this link isn't the one you want if you "just"
plan to install Debian.

This one seems more relevant:

  https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/

Choose your architecture and work from there...

I don't know where you received this email from, but perhaps you
could point that our to the email's author.

Cheers

The message was sent to the debian-announce mailing list today:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-announce/2018/msg00000.html

However, the email was perfectly clear that installation media are not
yet ready while still explaining how to go about upgrading an existing
Debian installation.

Regards,

-Roberto

Thanks for the clarification.
