Primarily because of these two reasons:
1.) Slavek's archives are essentially a high quality beta build, not a
release build, and therefore can change on a somewhat regular basis and
can contain bugs of varying severity at any given instant. When a point
release of TDE is made the contents of that archive are copied into the
main release archive; for example, someone installing TDE now from the
release archive would obtain TDE v3.5.13.1 instead of the original 3.5.13
release.
2.) Those archives are also not mirrored, which unfortunately means
terrible download speeds for anyone using them. ;-) As for why not, the
official release archive is already several tens of gigabytes, and I don't
want to cause problems for those individuals and organisations who have
graciously donated mirror space and bandwidth for the TDE project.

I have no idea why those repos are neither mentioned on the Trinity web
site
nor anywhere at the Wiki (at least - I always have to search old mail
archives to find them). Hi everyone!
I use the nightly builds for Wheezy, I have been testing them in vm's
for a while now with, mostly, good results.
I did just switch my workstation to Wheezy and installed the nightly
builds, 20/20 hindsight, I should of waited, but it is workable today ,
more fiddling than I like to do. I think they need more testing for
sure, join in :-)
Search the archives for Slávek Banko, he has some repos's of 3.5.13.2
that run on Wheezy, So, the question is: when Debian Wheezy
repository (of any TDE
release) will be ready? Maybe you need help to test one? I am willing
to put some effort to get back to TDE by the time of Wheezy release.
