Hi again Phill and Julien,

I noticed that Lubuntu Xenial has appeared at http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com
but there are no alternate iso files to test. (I notice that Ubuntu
Server and Netboot have appeared, and I guess that they still have the
debian installer.) Is this only temporary, or will the Lubuntu alternate
iso files be abandoned?

If this is the case, I can understand why you, Phill, wrote about the OBI.

Best regards
Nio
