I think the debian list would be more appropriate, as it is more likely
that the maintainer read those messages.

I think the netboot is something official, but if you compare the time
of file creation, you will notice a difference of a few days. It is
totally possible that the older mirror is just out of sync, with some
minor changes in between.
Somewhere should be a contact info for those servers. Maybe ask the
maintainer if they are out of sync.
But please note that this are only guesses. I did not use debian for a
long time, but in my opinion the given reason is plausible.


Also, please start a new thread on the Mailing list, instead of
responding to a totally different topic.

Cheers
CRT
