This really deserves its own thread, because it won't receive the attention it deserves in the original thread. I talked with infra about this a few weeks back, and while they said they really wanted downstreams to package, they weren't vehemently opposed to use creating our own repo, but we'd have to figure out how to make it work with the mirror system. Personally - the packages as they exist are great for people doing a first, small scale install, but it doesn't scale. While I am not necessarily opposed to the installer, I also recognize the problems from a real world deployment perspective. However, there is an impact, at a minimum all of our documentation will need rewriting, so personally, I'd prefer that for 4.0.0 - that we do repos if we can figure it out in time, and keep the installer as an option as well. --David
