You must be - I'm sure the list is members-only.
Providing a source ISO would,
- make it a lot easier to download (and verify) the full source for a release
- make it easier for mirrors to provide the source. As noted above hardly any do right now, I suspect if source ISOs were available nearly all would.
Isn't http://download.opensuse.org mirrored around the world? I think you get redirected depending on your location (mirrorbrain or something like that).
Could you please consider making source ISOs and making it easy to find on the website?
Probably a new item for openFATE: http://features.opensuse.org/
P.S. it was difficult for me to participate, I had to create a novell account (which wanted to send me things by default) in order to use bugzilla, and I had to subscribe to opensuse-project in order to send this mail.
Yes, subscribing to a mailing list is one the smaller hurdles.
