Or we might consider using TeXLive as default instead of MikTeX if it works better, now would be actually proper time to do it... Bundle install with MikTeX produced installing time measured in hours when I tried our installer couple weeks back. That is insane, but I do not know whether we have real alternatives. What install choices we have with TeXLive? Bundling 4gb of data is not an option, but there might be small installer which can be conditioned on base installation, without docs and we would be suddenly in the realm of 50-200mb. Bonus points would be fixed texlive version without on-the-fly updates and compatibility of LaTeX output with linux distros. Pavel
