we might wanna consider two separate rpm's : one with only bin (and perhaps
doc), and one with bin (only assemblies necessary to build NAnt), src,
examples, doc.
My 2c, probably the most useful download as a user is a binaries+docs package, especially if there's an installer option. The source package would usually contain everything but the binaries (?)
This way requires two downloads if you want everything (cross-platform binaries and source), but you can download the source without having to download the binaries again, if you've already installed the binaries, for example.This is pretty much what was proposed - seperate packages for 'binaries only' and 'source only'
Maybe this last logic breaks down, since you'd get two copies of the docs if you downloaded both packages. How much value is there to a source-only package? If you can then build your own docs once the build is bootstrapped...a large portion of the docs are generated so the source package would only contain the static pages and the rest could be built using the userdoc target.
A source only package should basically be the equivalent of the cvs tree for that release tag. Its often quite nice to have the source available without having to use cvs - some companies block cvs traffic at the firewall for example.
