I would first like to see the build system modified so that there can be
a single set of SRPMS ISOs, not one for each arch.  With the current two
arches, that would cut down on mirror storage space by 2.3G; _then_ you
could use that space for a single SRPMS DVD ISO.  Otherwise, you just
added 4.6G to the space requirement for each FC release (and more if
more arches become mainline) without adding any content.

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
