Re: [Springframework-developer] Spring Framework 2.0 M4 released

[Eugene K. <eu...@pl...>]

   Traditional congratulations and thank you for all the hard work!

   I have one suggestion though. Personally I am using JavaDoc published 
on the web site. Not sure how many developers actually using javadoc 
packaged with every release, but it increases download size for about 
20Mb. So, can you package it as a separate archive, so it would be 
possible to choose to not download it.

   Thanks

   Eugene
