The USB stick version is the same ISO as the DVD just made into a bootable usb. We have a schedule to finish 6.5 by Mid February well in time for Foss4gNA. The trickiest part about usb sticks is finding a vendor in the US who can actually make them bootable - we failed in Denver and I spent the week (with volunteers) re-doing all of them. I can provide you with the companies we have used in the past for DVDs and USBs. OSGeo does not usually pay for DVDs or USB sticks for conferences, especially not a FOSS4G where it ought to come from the admission fee. Marketing committee is the place to discuss.
