Where has the F10 DVD iso file gone?

That certainly isn't feasible.  There are updates almost every day,
especially for the first couple of months after release.  Ignoring the
actual work involved in spinning a release, even if you just respin the
DVD ISO and not the CDs or LiveCDs, and only for the binaries and not
the sources, that would be almost 12G of daily churn (plus the actual
updates) on the mirrors.  Torrents wouldn't help with only a 24 hour
"shelf life".

It also makes debugging somebody's install problems virtually
impossible, since you have no idea what release-of-the-day they are
using.
