Oh, I agree that I would like it, but I don't know if it is feasible.
Perhaps those isos could be posted as an alternative offer, while the original ones would still be available. Those would be the official ones.
Best positive side-effect: smaller update-repo means faster 'zypper patch' due to smaller repo-data to transfer and resolv.
No, only for those installing fresh at that time. The update repos would have to remain complete, for people that installed at the start of the release period, so that we would not have to change our systems mid-term.
Ie, all repos unchanged. Only alternative isos offered on alternative link.
Eh? that would create a whole new problem: additional repos. E.g. if this repo: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.1/repo/oss/ keeps it original GM content you would need a additional http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.1-SP1/repo/oss/ Here I call bullshit. No a rebase means a full rebase. cpoying the rpms from the update repo http://download.opensuse.org/update/13.1/ into the 'main' repo http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.1/repo/oss/ then adding in other 'updates / upgrades' from *:updates-apps, and similar, now recreating the indexes, 'ARCHIVES.gz', repo-data, and finaly the isos. Propagate to the mirrors After a min. 2days, better a week, the contens of the update repo can be purged as far they are integrated into the main repo No need to change anything in your local zypper config. The first 'zypper refresh' calls in the new repo-data to the main-repo and the now much smaller repo-data for the update-repo. Thus the consiteny is secured over this service-release. Just fresh isos are not all, think about net-installs, they use the main-repo during install heavyly.
