No, please don't.
I would guess that image dumps stopped being provided due to file
sizes and bandwidth needed for distribution. There have been
relatively recent discussions about providing BitTorrents for this
sort of thing, to take advantage of all the benefits from those sorts
of things, but no concrete plans have come to fruition (that I can
recall or am aware of at this time)..."watch this space" might be good
advice.
With a bit of luck, this thread could reopen the issue and perhaps
produce some viable proposals and a schedule for implementation.
