Re: [wildfly-dev] Trimming console size
Your proposal to reduce the permutations for WF makes sense. Especially the reduction to
just EN.However for EAP it's a different story. I can dig up a product reference
describing the requirements wrt to browser support. OOTH i think it's the last two
major versions. But a s Heiko R, said: For admins within restricted IT environments we
often see people using old versions.
But that doesn't prevent us from optimising the WF distribution. So you get my +1

Hey guys,
I was just discussing with Harald could get distro size down by 25+MB if we would trim
our console a bit.
Currently we compile console with 40 permutations, six browsers
(ie6,ie8,ie9,gecko1_8,safari) and eight languages (en,de,es,fr,pt_BR,zh_Hans,ja,ko).
I think we could drop support for ie6 and get rid of extra localization with support only
EN.
IE6 market share is so low this days that it really does not make sense to support it in
upstream anymore.
Also we don't ship localization of logging messages/exceptions in WildFy anyway, so
why have just one part localized.
This way we would get down to 4 permutations and our console distro would be 6.8Mb
instead of current 32,3Mb
Also if people want extra localization, they could always just download full console
release and replace that with jar we ship.
So what do you guys think?
