Is it clear whether the Debian image sources will continue to be maintained?

  I do not see direct statements that they will stop maintaining sources in open source. We'll see :)

    It is at the top of the announcement. This only affects OCI images, not source code "The source code for containers and Helm charts remains available on GitHub under the Apache 2.0 license."

It looks like setting up a mirror and CI/CD on top of Github might work for some time. ghcr is free for public images

  I've been thinking a lot about this kind of thing recently - and put a prototype up of htvend [1] that allows you to archive out dependencies during an image build. The idea being that if you have a mix of private/public dependencies that the upstream dependencies can be saved off locally as blobs allowing your build process to be able to be re-run in the future, even if the upstream assets become unavailable (as appears to be the case here).

  Or if you have a decent sized deployment in one of the clouds, it's extremely likely you'll already use their internal registry (eg AWS ECR). I know that we do. So it's just a case of setting up a few docker build projects in git that push to your own internal registry.

  Their Dockerfiles include things like download pre built binaries from $SECRET_BASEURL which is hosted by them, can still be found in git log though. I imagine it will go offline / have auth soon enough.
