Your leaving out Central America may confuse or upset  some people as if 
Central America is not worth mentioning.

Do we want to add the "Brazil Portuguese" language to the DVD's HTML 
languages?  That will be the next step after English is finished, 
Spanish [any ES] pages are made, French pages are made, and the whole 
"mess" merged together into one DVD.

I do wish that some package developers would make their install file 
names different from the English version name.  Several ones show the 
same file name for Spanish and French versions.  I wonder how you tell 
between versions, or are they the same version that auto-detects what 
your system default language is?  Inkscape's site has a /en/ in the 
folder you go to for downloading.  I changed that to "es" and "fr" and I 
got the same English text without Google's translation system kicking in.

I do not want to waste DVD file space for the software that use one 
install ".exe" file [or other type] by having the same exact file on the 
Spanish's "extras-folder-es" and "extras-folder-fr" for French.
