IMHO Etoys should be included as well.

It's well-tested, has an active upstream, and includes a couple nice demos. Or is there a specific reason to exclude it?

Besides, we have always told people that there is no need to download the Etoys activity from ASLO because it is just a tiny wrapper for the etoys executable that comes with the Sugar platform anyway.
