Please note that these all these images are always considered to be just snapshots, they can always suffer from regressions. I also intentionally didn't announce the images for 2019-04-24 for this reason. I understand the frustration, but we're currently introducing a lot of changes to debian-installer and debian-cd for Debian Ports and it would be better for this to settle before doing any new tests. I will announce new images once they are ready. I have my own iBook G4 set up for testing now, so I can make sure the images pass the minimum quality standards. Adrian -- .''`.
