Hi Nio,

Walter had a look into it, there was some sort of configuration mis-match
which Colin Watson (release team guru, and all round nice guy) says he has
now resolved. The alternates *should* appear at build time today (16:29 UTC
is cron job and the alternates take approx 30 mins to build, with the
desktop images arriving about 60 minutes later).

Regards,

Phill.
