BTW, shall we release a binary version at all?
yes, I think so.
Anything lowering the (rather high) entrance barrier is important - not
everyone is a knowledgeable user at the beginning but getting an easy
start without having to install another piece of software could trigger
interest.
The problem I see is that the user certainly expects to get a completely
usable product when downloading the binaries. With Lenya, this is not
the case - you just get a little showcase application, but can't do any
serious work with it. As soon as you want to develop your own
publication, you need the source version.
IMO we should create a roadmap to overcome this issue:
1. Release only the source version for the moment
2. Re-design our build process to allow deploying pubs+modules in the
binary version, i.e. separate the Lenya compilation process from the
pub/module deployment process
