I am building a Sugar Creation Kit DVD

I have a 3.2 GB .iso file I can upload to Tgillard

I envision a "sneaker-net" situation where this DVD is all that is 
required to
install sugar and make sugar on a stick USB's where there is NO Internet.

Note that the DVD includes a ASLO.iso which contains 111 activitiy .xo 
files downloaded from ASLO for cut and paste into a running soas from a 
CD or 2nd USB stick
(NO Network needed to add activities)

Please comment on the contents and usability of this project.
