My plan was to have this first prototype of the installation assistant
(and new download page) actually available on the production website but
not linked from the website nor advertised anywhere. It would live under
https://tails.boum.org/install. Because unfortunately, we don't yet have
the infrastructure for a staging website yet.
This would bring our tests as close as the final setup as possible.
