I guess I don't see the problem of the PostgreSQL distribution being 11 megs, heck even 50 megs. I know that some places don't have the bandwidth we do but it only takes me about 90 seconds to download the distribution.
Granted, "we in the West" are lucky ... but I know alot of ppl still on dialup, and I believe there are still alot of places in Europe (or is/was it just GB?) that pay per byte for their bandwidth ... even myself, at home, on a cable modem, have at times found downloads to be atrociously slow due to load n the network ...
