Already added Read back in (I did miss it off my initial list by the
sheer fact I didn't have a reference nearby when doing the email), at
least in the short term, the final package list is yet to be defined.

The next release will add back in:
sugar-write (yes I know it currently has issues)
sugar-read
sugar-chat
etoys-sugar
