afaict you currently use symlinks to point at the current version of
daily/weekly builds. This means that users who resume a download after a

changing that to a http redirect would mean that users would get a
directory listings page with non update dependent links to the image
that was current at the time they visited the cdimage server
considerablly reducing the risk of this happening.
Doing http redirects would not mirror well, not work for rsync/ftp access
methods, and require superuser privileges on many hosts not directly
involved in the cd building.
