[Off Topic] Technet Plus Subscription Question

I have a question about the Vista builds that we get with our Technet Plus
benefit. I seem to have noticed that we usually are behind about 1 or so
builds when we get our monthly subscription. For example we received the ill
fated November CTP Build 5231 in our Technet December shipment. Now this
last week the Vista Team released the December CTP build 5270 to and I quote
"Technical Beta testers, MSDN, and Technet Subscribers." The part that I am
curious about since we have no real download site for our type of
subscription is that the build was released to Technet subscribers, but to
where? Are we going to see this build in the January shipment (and by that
time there wil be the January or February CTP available?)

Anyone else notice this? Is there any way around it (aside from being a
Technican Tester or having a MSDN subscription?)

Thanks,

Anthony
