one reason for not doing so.
Which can be solved by jigdo.
Debian Sarge typically updates their iso weekly - getting the latest
iso to test is usually doable in less than an hour - for the full 2 DVD
distribution - if you already have the previous weeks iso's, because
jigdo will re-use those parts that have already been downloaded, and
only fetch the new pieces - producing iso files that match the md5sum
perfectly.
Jigdo is the right way to distribute a "re-spin" test release.
