Either or both. There is ongoing discussion about mashing up Anaconda as 
a step in between, hook it up with Pup and do something close to a live 
upgrade. One way or the other easy we should make this process more easy.

I haven't thought about this much yet. Just something to consider.

One reason we don't provide CD's is because mirrors will push back. If 
jidgo is integrated we can start providing CD's I think but I don't feel 
adding more and more variants to the default Fedora release is a good 
thing and hence live upgrades are a much better solution both for us and 
our end users.
