I have just tried to install a Debian Edu system from the netinst CD image
for the first time (in ages) on a fully up-and-running Debian Edu network.

One part of my favourite setup is blocking all outgoing traffic to the
internet for Debian Edu clients and have all internet connections mediated
by squid on TJENER (or some other host serving webcache.intern.3128).

So, my simple expectation was, that a Debian Edu installation from CD image
would automatically use the proxy server configured via WPAD. This obviously
is not in the case:

Quoting the manual:
"You can use an existing HTTP proxy service on the network to speed up
the installation of the main server profile from CD. Add e.g.
mirror/http/proxy=http://10.0.2.2:3128 as an additional boot parameter."

Similar instruction since the Etch release...

Thanks for clarification (many years later). As a solution exists, I will close this bug now.
