Update: New size is:

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 946864128 2010-03-23 11:02 livecd-fedora-live-desktop-201003231038.iso

Which doesn't leave a lot of room for a persistent overlay on a 1GB USB key.  I'll dive into this.  It's probably worth staying under 900MB.

Note this increase in size may have cascading affects on other spins putting them over their target sizes. Whatever you do with this, it would be nice for it to happen very soon so that other people have time to make any fixes needed to get their spins under size again before beta.

Actually fedora-live-base.ks is unchanged, which is a bug. I'll refactor this so that the minimization of live-base.ks is also split off from the fundamentals of a live OS.

I have no plans to affect other spins, ultimately.
