For stable it is whenever there is an announcement about it. Basically
never. For testing I think it is weekly or so. But that isn't important.
Never download dvd images unless absolutely neccessary. Use the
netinstall images and download the rest from the net as needed. Most
stuff on the DVDs you don't need and it is just wastage to download it
all.
Even more important don't ever redownload a dvd image. Use rsync or
give jidgo the old image as source first. That way you only get the
differences and not the 99% that are the same.
