Great idea, thanks! I missed this when I first read your post. I kept wondering how I could lock the patches to the OUT DVD, and this is the way. Only someone who actually has a copy will be able to decrypt the patches.

I've reconsidered my boot cd idea. I don't think it is really necessary, and will cause problems (for example, networking setup, USB, lack of NTFS write support, etc). We can hopefully port to Cygwin for Windows users. I have no way to personally port to OS X, but we can deal with that later when the time comes.

I'm glad to see some interest. I've created a very poor (at this point) wiki page, which will hopefully improve as we map things out. I am pretty tired now so I'll have to work on it more later:
