 SVN checkout is 53 MB, after unzipping  fonts.zip  it all occupies  171

 If we added MathJax to Sage, it might be good to strip out the image fonts
 and distribute them separately as a mathjax-image-fonts spkg (mathjax faq
 tells how to do this, I believe).  Somewhere I have a half-finished
 prototype of this solution.

 Just in case you haven't thought of this, what Gollum (the GitHub forum)
 folks did was host the MathJax fonts on Amazon S3, and then not include
 them in their distribution.  I don't know if that would work for you, but
 I wanted to point it out.
