[Fedora-livecd-list] Periodically remastered LiveCDs?

Hey guys,

I was wondering if there are any plans or existing unofficial torrents
that provide remastered "stable" LiveCD images with all the recent
updates applied? For example, I've tried out the FC9 LiveCD and my
wireless card would not work until I installed the iso to a USB and
upgraded my wpa_supplicant and NetworkManager. From googling around,
this seemed like a common problem with the early FC9 installs.

In general, I've noticed the initial release of many distributions is
quite buggy, but that things vastly improve after a couple of months
of updates. Is there any reason why remastered updates aren't provided
officially? Having a more stable LiveCD will definitely give people a
much more favorable opinion of Fedora.

Anyways, great work on the LiveCD effort in general. I was really
impressed with how easy it was to get the USB stick installed in a
non-destructive fashion, even when it contained the very .iso it
installed from. Cool stuff!
