As producing and testing an ISO has non-zero cost to the team doing the
work and doesn't necessarily line up with the things we need to do to
produce the supported release, we'd prefer to do an ISO once we have a
reasonably significant set of updates to include. Since that's not the
case yet, and the workarounds for the problems are not especially
difficult to apply, we've decided to wait a bit. Thanks for trying it,
but remember that it's a preview and it's a given that some things will
be broken. We ended up with a couple more than we expected, but that's
the way it goes when your test cycle is about 45 minutes long ;-)
