Right, except WBEL might do respins for different reasons, or at 
different times, than RHEL;  the choice should be based on trading off 
the pain of a respin versus the pain (and bandwidth) of old ISO + tons 
of updates.

+1.  I suppose the original ISOs might be archived somewhere public, for 
curiosity's sake, but they don't need to be mirrored once newer ones are 
available.
