+1. 
For us, with a very poor internet connection, a distribution with
dependencies are the best choice :-D

Asunto: Re: [Carbon-dev] Giving two distributions as online and offline for
CS 2.0.0

+1. But I think calling these two online & offline is misleading.
How about with dependencies & without dependencies?

Hi All, 

For CS 2.0.0, we need to have Eclipse GMF related bundles installed in to
the Eclipse instance that is running. At the moment what we do is, ask users
to do an online installation of CS 2.0.0, so all the needed bundles will be
downloaded and installed. This online installation takes sometime, if the
internet connection of the user is not strong enough. A jira [1] is also
being reported. As another option what we can do is add all the GMF related
bundles inside CS 2.0.0 distribution which will allow users to install CS in
very short period. But this has some drawbacks such as
• Distribution will be increased by 40-50MB of size
• Needed plugin list is huge (near 115 bundles) and all those bundles should
be added to the pom and maven repo
• Once we do that, we stick to  a specific version of those plugins. But if
we allow online installation, it will always download the latest versions
from the repos
We are planning to give two distributions as online installation (which will
be less in size, but take some time to install) and offline installation
(which will be extra 40-50MB in size, but take very small time to install).
WDYT ?

Thanks and Regards,
Chathuri
