I am often working using a lousy GPRS internet connection (like now :)). I download big things while connected to LAN and I need to be sure that I have all deps fetched when going "on holiday". If I had to fetch all dependencies manually (and not only from cocoon) I would always miss something.A full download may not be the default one but we surely need it.
Didn't you just send a message stating spring does the same any you are happy with it?? I don't see a problem with your GPRS connection. Maybe I did not make myself clear: o the checkout would not contain any 3rd party jars o the definition of what is meant to be built will define what jars need to be downloaded o a tailored cocoon like that will only have the jar ins WEB-INF/lib it really needs o for every release we also provide a with-all-deps version for vadim ;) o we have a target/goal to download all the deps once you are online So where is the problem again? cheers -- Torsten Btw: once we have all bundle based we wanted to move towards the download direction anyway ...at least to my understanding.
