I thought so too, but I'm not too experienced with Java. When I saw that it was requiring a compile after downloading, I assumed it was using some C++ magic somewhere (I see this alot with libraries in nodejs and python) and that it would need to be compiled for the machine. If I can just compile it on my laptop and copy over the installers, that'd be great! -John
