[Squeakland] Squeak in Debian and Fedora

I was wonder if it would be worth while for squeakland to start
pushing etoys through the standard linux distributions.

Due to the recent downsizing at OLPC, OLPC will no longer be creating
a custom XOos.  Instead, XOos will be a near standard Fedora
distribution, shipped by Fedora, running sugar as the desktop.  As
such we would like to see etoys distributed as standard rpms and debs.

I think most of the hard work is done.  All of the code origin is
known.  Both Debian and Fedora have agreed in theory to package self
compiling VMs.

Thanks
