There is some room for improvement with the current debian-installer page for 
Stretch: https://www.debian.org/releases/stretch/debian-installer/
contains the chapter for Stretch (stable) images
("To install Debian (stretch), download any of the following images "), 
Documentation and Errata, all for Stretch, but they are not relevant at the
moment, of course.

Should we set that parts to
	<if-stable-release release="stretch"> ?
In the past, that respective chapter was just added when the new stable
release happened, so that was not needed in the past, but I think it would
be a fine improvement now.

Additionally, I would add a small sentence on how to install Stretch now
(basically a link to ../devel/debian-installer), which would be
	<if-stable-release release="jessie">

A proposal patch is attached, and also two html files, how the page would
look like now (during Stable=Jessie) and after the next release (when
Stable=Stretch).

If any of the hardware in your system <strong>requires non-free firmware to be

<a href="http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/firmware/stretch/current/">tarballs of common firmware packages</a> or download an <strong>unofficial</strong> image including these <strong>non-free</strong> firmwares. Instructions how to use the tarballs
and general information about loading firmware during an installation can
be found in the Installation Guide (see Documentation below).

<strong>Notes</strong>
</p>
<ul>
    <li>
	For downloading full CD and DVD images the use of BitTorrent or jigdo
	is recommended.
    </li><li>
	For the less common architectures only a limited number of images
	from the CD and DVD sets is available as ISO file or via BitTorrent.
	The full sets are only available via jigdo.
    </li><li>
	The multi-arch <em>CD</em> images support i386/amd64; the installation is similar to installing
	from a single architecture netinst image.
    </li><li>
	The multi-arch <em>DVD</em> image supports i386/amd64; the
	installation is similar to installing from a single architecture full
	CD image; the DVD also includes the source for all included packages.
    </li><li>
	For the netinst CD images, <tt>MD5SUMS</tt> and
	<tt>SHA1SUMS</tt> files	are available from the same directory as the
	images.
    </li>
</ul>
<h1>Documentation</h1>
<p>
<strong>If you read only one document</strong> before installing, read our
<a href="../i386/apa">Installation Howto</a>, a quick
walkthrough of the installation process. Other useful documentation includes:
</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="../installmanual">Stretch Installation Guide</a><br>
detailed installation instructions</li>
<li><a href="https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/FAQ">Debian-Installer FAQ</a>
