One more question, how do I only create the formats for British English

There is only one English format that you can generate with "texexec
--make en". If you're speaking about how to generate only that one
with first-setup.sh, then you should be, at least in theory, able to
generate only the chosen formats with --formats switch or my modifying
the lua file that gets generated, but I imagine that it doesn't work
or at least I have never tested it so far.
do you know if first-setup.sh only downloads the files /only if/ they're are
changes? i mean could a simple checksum do the job?
Yes, it only downloads the modified files, but it doesn't use
checksums since using them is much slower. You could add an additional
-c switch, but you will not notice any difference (apart from a few
files that Hans recreates every time when he uploads a new zip, but
that's neglectable). Rsync checks for date+size. Only if these two are
different it fetches the file. You could add checksum checking, but I
guess that you don't gain anything.
The only critical component where I really do need to change this are
luatex and metapost source, but this only concerns binary builders,
not users.
there has been a time that this was possible, but inpractice it's not
that handy ... specifying the language should be part of the document
preamble; in that time we had no gyre and as language is related to
patterns + font encodings in mkii it was even more tricky
one thing that you can do is add \mainlanguage[gb] to cont-sys.tex
default to brittish english so that on your system it always starts that
way; the overhead is nil
