Well, it is "minimal" in the sense of dependencies, I guess.
and also in the sense that there is much left out that would never be used at all; once luatex/mkiv is stable and once we have open type math fonts, even more font stuff can go away (since xetex does not need it either) keep in mind that small trees run faster (when kpse is used) also, they archive better (think of running 10 projects on a machine where each needs a frozen tree) another feature of the minimals is that by default they support texmf-project and texmf-fonts which makes separation of project specific files (and fonts) as well as commercial fonts more convenient. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
