We should put as many packages as .zip on the CD as possible, but many packages
need to be availabel in Live-CD mode. I presume WebPositive would be among
those. :-)
For the same reasons that we did not include VLC on the last alpha, I believe
we should also not include BeZillaBrowser alongside WebPositive.
