John, strange you should say that. A few days ago, I asked a friend of
mine that same question. I personally think that whenever there are
updates to Fedora 10 after you have installed it, there should
automatically be an undated ISO. When the need arises, there will
always be a fresh version of Fedora 10. I don't know what's all
involved in the making of an iso, but it sound feasible.

I downloaded and installed F10 from CDs yesterday. I was not well
impressed to find I needed a further 600 Mbytes of updates for a basic
ia32 desktop install.
There is a need for regularly respun ISOs.
The taste became even more bitter when I found it doesn't work on an HP
EVO D510 - xorg locks the system, and without a working network the only
way to regain control is the power button, but that's another story.
