Would that work? If there was a change that changed the size of one package, 
then all the others would move to accommodate, and most of the image would be 
different - or is jidgo smarter than bittorrent in that respect?

I figure the RCs are good enough anyway, the changes that occur between now 
and then are likely to be pretty minor, and updated when you install anyway, 
unless they occur in the installer.
