First, I want to say that the Struts 1.3.5 assembly is a marvel of
Maven engineering.

* http://people.apache.org/builds/struts/1.3.x/assembly/

It's all there, simple as pie.

/docs
/lib
/src
/webapps
NOTICE.txt
LICENSE.txt

My only question is: Does size matter?

Zipped, the 1.3.5 snapshot is 40.8mb.

Zipped, the individual components come to

docs.zip - 11.5mb
lib.zip - 2.8mb
src.zip - 5.8mb
webapps - 20.5mb

Do we want to offer these archives separately, in addition to the
combined snapshot?

I'm not suggesting that we fuss with the build right now. I can just
zip these up by hand from the big snapshot and drop in the NOTICE.txt
and LICENSE.txt files.

Thoughts?

Meanwhile, offhand, does anyone know why the 1.3.5 distribution has
doubled in byteage?

The comparable numbers for 1.2.9 seem to be

combined assembly, 22mb
docs, 2.1mb
lib, 1.3mb
src, 8.2mb
webapps, 10.1mb

I could dig a bit more, but wanted to check with the group first.

(Or, as Jason says, it's just that 1.3.5 is twice as good!)

PS: There's still a bit to do with Checkstyle patches, sorting out
"embedded" Tiles, and doing some type of documentation for the apps,
but we are very close to tagging and rolling.
