i actually think the iso filename is too long/descriptive given the location
anyway, e.g for us, /pub/debian-cd/3.0_r0/i386/<filename>.
there is already enough metadata in the path to let people know that the files
in the directory are iso images for woody for the i386 arch, so i prefer the
naming scheme we used to have of binary-i386-1.iso and so on.
i think something similar for jigdo would make sense, e.g
/pub/debian-cd/jigdo-area/3.0r0/i386/<files>
/pub/debian-cd/jigdo-area/3.0r1/i386/<files>
