It appears to be a problem on the mirrors.

Several doc/dedication/dedication-9.0.* files present in extrafiles[1]
are missing from the mirrors. Since simple-cdd uses extrafiles to
determine which files to download, missing files cause it to fail.

You can workaround the issue by setting mirror_files='README tools/' in
profiles/default.conf until it gets fixed.

I've mentioned this on the #debian-mirrors IRC channel, and waldi fixed
it; it may take several hours to propegate.
