Hi Greg,
I've been on this page before and I just checked it out again. All I could
find on the USA and Canada sites were .iso.asc files. Unless I am
completely under-estimating .asc files, since I really don't know what kind
of files they are, the file sizes that were in those .iso directories were
whey too small to be cd images.
