Yes, but here we're talking about downloading stuff needed to build Cocoon aren't we? So we end up downloading _all_ dependencies. I've no problem with that particularly. What I want to see is small, snappy binary distributions. If we still have a large source download, that's fine with me. And, IIUC, what we're doing is in line with that. Regards, Upayavira
