Once again I realized that my last iteration created an x86_64 spin
when I really needed an i386 spin, so I've respun. I put the results
here:
http://pfrields.fedorapeople.org/temp/livecd-fedora-livecd-desktop-summit-200908040728.iso
One other change is under consideration, which is having a text mark
of some sort on the desktop background identifying this as a Summit
spin. That change will not be part of a desktop background package,
just installed locally for the "liveuser" account. I don't have that
art yet but I'm hoping to get it shortly.
