To follow on from the github messages (around DMG generation with background 
image).

1) Jesse has a sparse image he used for DMG generation here: 
http://udig.refractions.net/files/downloads/dmg-template/
2) I also have a video he provided showing how to do the create DMG from folder 
trick
3) A bit of research shows that making a .background.png (i.e. invisible in the 
finder) is a good way to hide an image and then you can set that image as your 
background for a folder; before doing the create DMG from folder thing

I wonder if any of that can be automated...
