Cython is small, so the extra couple MB is not really a big issue, though my internet connection at work is really slow ;-(. But as Greg commented, this is unpolite. If all projects out there did the same, even you will complain (think of core CPython doing this). For example, I'm involved in developing PETSc. The latest release tarball weights 14MB; if we add the .hg directectory, that would add 85MB; and many PETSc users are also developers... -- Lisandro Dalcín --------------- Centro Internacional de Métodos Computacionales en Ingeniería (CIMEC) Instituto de Desarrollo Tecnológico para la Industria Química (INTEC) Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET) PTLC - Güemes 3450, (3000) Santa Fe, Argentina Tel/Fax: +54-(0)342-451.1594 _______________________________________________ Cython-dev mailing list [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/cython-dev
