This is the Official Wiki Page for the Respins SIG.

1) Mission:
Our mission is to provide the community at large a Updated ISO Image that allows them a ready-made Demo ISO for things like Installfests, Conferences/local Events (Colleges -- like CS Program students learning to use Linux), as well as a ready-made image that can serve as a Rescue media in the event of a Borked install. We also provide on request Multi-Boot ISOs namely for our Ambassador attended events and installfests which have ALL 7 ( sometimes with an additional lab spin) all made into a single burnable ISO ( generally this one is 9-10Gb in all compared to ~750mb-1.5Gb).
The images are available at: https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/live-respins/
