Hi Will,

It sounds good - an optional lean package would frighten off far less 
prospective users who have heard tales about HDD's dying from the strain of 
downloading the ZF ;).
I would still like to see a PEAR channel emerge at some point though - that may 
be a fanciful concept but I gather from the last paragraph something along 
those lines is under consideration?
Hope someone comes up with colourful names for these variants!

Best regards,
Paddy

Subject: [fw-general] ZF Packaging

As part of the 1.5 release process, we've been reviewing the size of our
distribution package and what contributes the most weight. We've
determined that there are a few 'heavyweights' that we currently have in
the zips/tarballs that many- if not most- users will never need. These
include the unit tests, the demos, and the locale files (currently
consuming ~8MB uncompressed on my hdd :O). With these components, the
1.0.3 release is ~5.3MB compressed on my hdd. We would like to
distribute, starting with the 1.5 RC1, a 'lean and mean' ZF package
alongside the 'everything' package. The 'lean and mean' package would
not contain the tests, demos, locale files, or extras. 'Everything'
would include, well, everything- even docs in html format. To facilitate
access to the omissions from the 'lean and mean' release, we would
provide a download action for the CLI tool so they can be retrieved and
installed in the correct place with a single command.
Thomas can give more details about how the locale-aware components would
behave in this proposal.
Thoughts?

Thanks.
,Wil
