No .iso file available for 'Releases', only daily-live

[Michael Roy]

During development of Ubuntu, before a version is considered 'released', there are daily-live arm64 .iso images made available.

However, once a release is out and the download repo moves to cdimage.ubuntu.com/[ubuntu or ubuntu-server]/releases/ there is no longer a generic .iso file available.

For example, it's not possible to find 'kinetic-desktop-arm64.iso'.
Before the 22.10 release it was available at https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/kinetic-desktop-arm64.iso.

However, there is now no 'kinetic-desktop-arm64.iso' available in the release's download folder:
https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases/kinetic/release/

Likewise, there is no 'jammy-desktop-arm64.iso' available in the release's download folder:
https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases/jammy/release/

In other words, it would be preferred that this URL does not 404:
i.e. https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases/kinetic/release/kinetic-desktop-arm64.iso

Can we please have [release]-desktop-arm64.iso and [release]-server-arm64.iso be made available with the rest of the 'Released' bits?

These images did not meet the criteria for inclusion in the releases in question; and we will not add them to the releases after the fact. It is up to the Desktop Team to determine when they are ready to try to include these images in a future release.
