livecds in the future

If release engineering would like to release liveusb.iso for people to 
use to install or just to look at the new features, that is fine But 
from the #fedora channel the # of people installing off of the livecd 
images are very high (if you want to search the logs i am sure they can 
be provided, and yes the # installing useing the livecd.iso on usb is 
high as well.)

the current livecd isos need to continue (yes i know the size sux, but 
not everyone has highspeed internet thats why they are downloading the 
livecd and not the dvd)

I say if you want to offer more choice, that is great, but do not shoot 
yourself in the foot yet, for f13 we can always try a liveusb image as 
well as the livecd iso if someone is willing to help release engineering 
make this happen so much the better for all of us

if the people wanting a localized spin step up and do and maintain one 
for your locale.
