Hi.

I am considering how we can have a smaller footprint on dist and mirrors.

One of the ideas is to have a "pure" exe, "pure" language oxt and "pure"
dictionaries on the physical disk, and the have a more intelligent download
page.

Would it be possible (and preferable) to make a download page, where the
user.

a) selected version (exe)
b) selected (multiple) languages (language pack without dictionary)
c) selected (mutiple) dictionaries.

The choices should be combined into a filename == exe+lang(s)+dict(s).
Which is sent to the server as a download request.

On the server we would have a backend script that packed the items together
just like postprocess/instsetoo does today, so the user would get 1 file.

I know how to make the backend script, but the UI could be a problem ?
