jigdo

Has Fedora considered using jigdo for distribution of the iso's?

It works very well for fetching debian iso's - and you can use mirrors
that don't have iso files - as the iso files themselves are generated on
the end user machine.

It would also mean that stable versions of fedora could have the iso's
updated as package bug fixes come out, so that 3 months after release -
a user doesn't spend hours of bandwidth getting CD's that are going to
require additional bandwidth to bring to patch level.
