I've already accounted for firefox, I believe, since FF3 is in the 
builds already, though your sizes for the l10n packages differ a bit 
from mine.

We'd already had some discussion about breaking out non-essential 
themes, and I thought you'd already done some of the re-packaging; is 
that accounted for here?  That's the other main contributor.

That is still being considered, depends on where we end up with other 
things.
