download w/out examples 56k
Oct 22nd, 2008, 5:17pm  
This would be low priority I suppose considering all the development you guys are doing now, but I would like to see the download with Java but without the examples folder as I am on 56k. Perhaps the examples could be a separate download. I don't know maybe there are not enough people on 56k anymore for it to make sense. Anyone?

I think it's convenient for most people to have the examples included and it's inefficient for our work to make and post a separate release without examples. I agree that it would be nice, the examples are about 20MB of the download.

In particular the drawing.mov which is 34MB...
The examples doesn't take much space (small text files) but the companion files, which are unlikely to change across versions, weight a lot.

But I don't see a simple distribution scheme to account that...
