Interesting idea. The database doesn't know anything about file

How would you expect to handle sets of media (e.g. downloading 3 CD
ISOs that are in the releases/7/Fedora/i386/iso/ directory as opposed
to a single DVD ISO)?
Hmm, good point. I was thinking that the form could specify
a file path
such as:
filepath=/pub/fedora/linux/releases/%(rel)s/Fedora/$(arch)s/iso/F-$(rel)s-$(arch)-DVD.iso
And the script would substitute the proper values based on the rel/arch
parameters. For sets of media, the filepath would go to the directory
containing all of the images.
I'm mostly unsure about how spins/the get-fedora page will work (and if
the directory structures/spin names will remain consistent between
releases), so depending on these factors, it might or might not be
useful.
Thanks,
