opensolaris.org: Prevent accidental robotomies

We've been working through bits and pieces of opensolaris.org, looking for the troubling portions where regular human touches are currently required.

These are troubling because (a) someone forgets to touch when someone else is on vacation, sick, or whatever, and then (b) someone depending on that resource being touched gets annoyed/loses time/sends us Kafkaeque email about transforming into an automaton.

Recently, Steve pulled a little Python script together and now we can smoothly offer direct DVD downloads of Solaris Express Community Release across each incremental release. In honour of his script, a new download button:

Get the (SXCR) DVD.

http://opensolaris.org/sxcr_dvd should work, without problem, for the duration of Nevada. But pipe up on website-discuss if it fails.
