I download the pre-built packages.  Not all the packages from the sumo
are included.

One item to discuss is whether or not to include experimental packages
instead of the released packages.  I have recently been building setup
kits including the experimental packages and would do that again
unless I received direction to the contrary.

I won't be able to build the setup kit today - I forgot my Windows
computer is at work.  But I'm still planning on building a 21.5.29 kit
no later than Tuesday.

Regards,
  Vin
