Issue 763: Gears distribution for completely offline clients
http://code.google.com/p/gears/issues/detail?id=763

New issue report by rakeshw:
This topic has been discussed in several threads(listed below) but no
satisfactory solution was provided by the gears team. Scenario is simple:
Client do not have access to public internet. And there is no possibility
that he can ever have access to it. There could be various reasons for
this: firewall, company policy, school and colleges, clients working in
ship/oil rig/arctic/moon/mars etc.

We are facing a similar scenario. After developing our web based
application using gears we realize that gears installer cannot be packaged
with the application itself. Half of our clients are working in remote
environment where no internet is available.

Almost all popular browser based plugins(eg. Flash) provide re-distribution
capability for a good reason.

Attached below are the various threads with similar discussion:

Finally, while the gears team decide its strategy on this issue, is it at
least possible to provide a non official installer(only for windows XP)??
It would be greatly appreciated!!!!
