Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-6259:
-------------------------------------

You've already made some assumptions anyway (maven, wget/ curl are not 
available on Windows for example). But sure, a list of (direct) URLs is also 
fine since it can be simply pasted into a browser...

> In LUCENE-6247, one idea discussed to decrease the size of release artifacts 
> was to remove the inclusion of dependencies from binary releases.  These jar 
> files increase the size of the binary releases a lot, and the size is mostly 
> in a couple modules (eg benchmark and spatial).
> I think most people consume lucene through maven. For those that do use the 
> binary release, we can still make pulling the dependencies for these modules 
> easy. We can add a generated README file in each module that has 
> dependencies, with instructions indicating they need to download the 
> dependencies, and then give the list of jar files they need to download, with 
> exact links to maven (which we can extract from ivy?).
