Thanks for the reply.
Java modules are not included into the Mozilla files? Good. I though
they were because the file size is so big... :-)
My opinion is that it will be better a separate file with the "browser
only" version, without mail and the other modules.
In Europe we pay to connect, and dowloading a file of 3 MB is cheaper
than downloading one of 10 MB.
Many people would download a browser of 3 MB, just to try it. But
nobody will attempt do download one of 10 MB just for curiosity.
We have slower connections and modems (I've a 33.6 k).
I think a smaller Mozilla file size would help the browser to spread.
