Second and hopefully final full ISO is up.
The kernel will not be linux 4.9.x, instead it has moved to 4.8.15. 4.9 is not marked as stable upstream, there are no updates since 4.9.0 release, so it will be at least a few weeks before 4.9.x would be ready for the next stable kernel.
Included is the new isowriter with the option to verify the USB burn. See the correct md5 as now shown by isowroter after "Verfy":
For the rest about 60 packages updated since the Dec 27 ISO
