I'll test that I can rebuild OpenJDK/Icedtea with those reduced binaries before uploading them. OTOH, if somebody does not want to build OpenJDK/Icedtea, and wants to use the binary as is, it may be better to keep demo, man, and sample (adds 7MB or so). I do not know if src.zip is useful: It adds 40-45MB. Anybody knows what it is useful for?
