Hi Jack,

no, they're not on the same server. Also, there's the possibility that
we setup sites with a new, experimental system, that uses new
components, while having production sites with old component versions on
the same machine. A centralized install definitely is a no-go.

That would be an option to save bandwith, but we'd need to put some work
in the synchronization feature (we have implemented our own FTP
transport for the sake of automation and system integration) and I'd
still need to use a stripped-down version of ZF so that we don't waste
much disk space when we have multiple sites (thousands) on the same
machine.

Just stating the actual dependencies in the manual sounds somewhat
easier and more straightforward to me :-D
