+1 I can't remember how many times I forget, and need to go back to
get the source, or the bin.
Alternatively make sure that the SRC distro always contains a
prebuilt jar inside it. That way you either need just the bin
release (lightweight, just the JAR ma'am), or the src with the jar
and docs and source.
My 2 Australian cents (not worth much)

Currently we make available two versions, src and bin.
The src contains all the source code and xdocs. Occaisionaly the
jar file is included (this is a related issue to this email thread).
The bin contains the jar file, and the javadoc.
Yet, whenever I download a commons package I always find myself
downloading both - the bin to get the jar, and the src to get the
source to attach within my IDE (Eclipse).
So, maybe we should consider having an ide download. This would
contain the jar and the zipped src (no xdoc or package.html etc).
This would be a smaller download than either current dist, yet
provide everything most users need, and without two downloads.
Am I talking rubbish? Would you download a commons-xxx-ide.zip? Is
it worth the effort?
