None of this is true.  The mini.iso is built from the debian-installer
source package, but that has nothing to do with importing from Debian,
except for the name.  We upload it regularly in Ubuntu, and carry a
massive local delta for it.  The one that's currently in -proposed was
uploaded by me earlier today.

They're not built daily, they're built every time we upload d-i, which
is fairly often (whenever kernel ABIs change, or when we change other
d-i components, etc).
