But again, U2UG cannot actually put the installation in the VM. They HAVE to go to the website and download it.
So - all you could do is a script that to leads them to the download site. The still have to endure the 60+MB download of stuff they need. It's IBM's gift to the fledgling incubator user - learn to suffer! (I hope it builds character! <g>) In reality, this being a legal issue is hooey... Anyone who wanted to make this work who was high enough up on IBM's side could make it possible if it were important enough to them. The whole legal issue could be fixed in a 'legalese wrapper' for the installation. I suspect the fact is, it's important to the U2UG and others like us, but as Dawn pointed out - why does IBM care one way or the other? That's why the process will end up being convoluted and leave the 'wow, this is a pain' experience (think like no SBClient - lots of downloads) - no one high up enough at IBM is greasing the rails to make it smoother.
