OK I should have read your whole post before replying- but at any rate your best options are either have them download the outdated official ISO of the current release (F9), have them download a respin that won't need to be updated, or download an official Beta ISO of the upcoming release (F10). There is no real reason to update the official images on the main site, they are going to be obsolete in 6 months. This is why the Unity project exists, to provide more updated ISO images, while not tying up the main release engineers' time making new ISOs all the time. Their time is better spent working on the next release. This is how it is in the free software / open source world, it is a constantly moving target. Pick the latest one and go for it. What is so ridiculous having a new user download a respin instead of official image, if a new release is less than a month away (for example)? Or, why not burn it for them? IMHO. <div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 9:23 PM, Matt McKenzie <<a href="mailto:lnxknight@gmail.com">lnxknight@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c">On Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 9:13 PM, Satyajit Ranjeev <<a href="mailto:satyajit@nerdshack.com" target="_blank">satyajit@nerdshack.com</a>> wrote: <div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi, I have noticed that the Fedora ISO images available on the fedora site are the same from the release time. If I were to download a live cd image I would have to install atleast 600M of updates. Now just think of this, I have just downloaded 700M for the live cd and when I update I have again 600+M to download. I do realize there is the respins and fedora unity. But for first time users it would be rather ridiculous. The new users are just going to come to the web site and download the old cd image. Is there any way where we could update these images?

These are "re-spins", that are completely up to date as of the date listed, so you won't have to download as much or any updates. <a href="http://spins.fedoraunity.org/spins" target="_blank">http://spins.fedoraunity.org/spins</a> -- ---------- Matt M.
