Additionally, it seems silly to change this every time we push out an ISO. Does anyone have an issue with this patch?

+1 from me. But don't forget /etc/issue from filesystem package.

Yeah, that was next, assuming no one yelled about this here.

Another +1 from me. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

+1.

+1. BTW, East-European users used to joke that the major difference between Arch and other distros is that the appearance of a new release is noticed only by the change of /etc/issue after one of reboots. :-)
