I didn't write that; please attribute quotes properly.
No. Official ISOs are only rebuilt on new releases.
- how could I rebuild an Fedora installer with a newer kernel version ?
I've often wondered about this myself.
Does anyone have information on HOW Fedora actually builds their ISO images. They must have some tools, makefiles, or something that does this. What decides which RPMs go on which discs, and so on. But I've never come across anything which talks about this process. Is there any source code anyplace? If the process of building ISOs even "open"?
See the anaconda Wiki for full details of the installer, how to build ISOs etc.:
