I haven't checked if that still works, but I guess it would. Of course not with the Live spins, as they are compressed and thus everything changes all the time. But maybe we could offer them as uncompressed images somewhere -- you could still test them using USB-Sticks, DVDs, or with visualization solutions like KVM, Qemu, and Virtual-Box.
If you don't need to test the exact bits, another option is to maintain a local mirror of rawhide and build livecd/dvd images yourself using livecd-creator. It is pretty easy to do. Rawhide churn is a bit high, so that even with rsync you will regularly get > 100 MB of changes and sometimes
1 GB on a daily basis. There also aren't a lot of rsync mirrors that are
updated daily.
