A large number of us (including myself) _have_ already been running off of
the ISO images. I suggested to Jordan that he start including the full package
set at RELEASE + 4 (which should have been the 12/12 snapshot), so we could
test what would be the actual release CD. So far, this hasn't happened, but
I suspect that its more that Jordan is under a lot of pressure to fix things,
rather than the release cycle is going to get stretched.

Therefore, if you really want to bang on the ISO images, the time to do so is
"now".
