What do you guys think of omitting bootstrap.sh from release tarballs?
The full source code of a project should be the primary release artifact. Is bootstrap.sh not project source code?
I wonder if Thrift might instead be better of releasing multiple tarballs. You could release a source tarball that's just a dump of subversion, and then also release other artifacts that are more directly useful to end users, e.g., pre-built tarballs for some languages, or easy-to-build tarballs for others.
