i agree with you, that ProTeXt's Zip-Archive has become to big in the
last years. While the greatest parts of the archive are claimed by the
(La)TeX-packages shipped with MiKTeX, reducing the size comprise with
the following problems:
- Which packages can be dropped, while there is still everything inside
to "write math/scientific paper"s?
- Is MiKTeX's installation-routine still usable with a package-reduced
istallation-archive?
- Will i run into any licensing problems, when i extract any packages
from the installation-archive?
As long, as i don't have any serious answers to the questions pointed
above, i'll see no chance for a size-reduction.
Sincerely - Thomas
