--------------------------------------
All those differences are actually showing how good it is to rely on the product
definition to produce the installer instead of putting the whole site in!
org.jboss.tools.jst.jsdt and tern are supposed to come from Central, not from main JBDS
repo.
JBDS Installer shouldn't contain source features/plugins

So the basic JBDS installer is 70MB fatter. From my understanding it's because we now
ship a *huge* forge2 runtime (50MB), Tern, the JVM Monitor and probably some other minor
stuff.
Fair enough. But do we *really* need to add all the source features/plugins to the
installer? *If* we're legally bound to provide sources for JBoss plugins, couldn't
we provide them via an other way? (p2 only).
I reckon we could save ~37 MB by not shipping sources in the installer. I know storage is
cheap and d/l speeds are faster but that's not an excuse.
