I've thought about writing an app that would give you a Jenkins Plugin Archive with all the plugins and their dependencies, but I haven't gotten around to it yet. I think it would be useful for people who are cut off from internet access on their Jenkins server machine, or for people who want to just drop in a single file to get all the plugins they want. It's been on my list of things to do for a while.
