If there are to be no .iso images anywhere (which would suck), then it
should say in big letters that there are no iso images anywhere.
There are times when a .iso really is what you need, and when those
times come, it really sucks badly to force people to search through a
whole list of "mirrors" that are in reality nothing of the sort and
most of which don't have what you need (and what our pages say they have).

But joeyh appears to be on the case, so I am confident that the situation
will be rectified before too long...
