Introduction to a new SIG for creation of Live DVD

Two questions:

1) Deltaisos are capable of saving roughly half the download size in
going from Fedora N to Fedora (N+1), but only work for installation
images, not live images.  Is there any form of delta compression for
live images which is competitive with this?

2) (A little off topic) The installation images are still labeled i386,
even though after the two package rebuilds, all packages on the disk
will be i686.  The live CDs are correctly labeled i686, presumably the
live DVDs will be also.  Are there any plans for F13 to relabel the
installation images, and the repo directory names, to stop referring to
i386?
