Still not finalized.  Depends on how much time I/others can put into it
between now and (lets say) RC1.

The DVD target thing would go a long way towards having a DVD possible.
I don't mind the thought of needing to do some manual fiddling to put
together the packages for the DVD (e.g. for the purposes of building the
package set for the DVD manually editing
src/release/scripts/package-split.py for the short-term) but I'm less
enthusiastic about needing to do manual fiddling to piece together the
rest of the DVD image.
