Hi Norbert,

I need help on getting all the collection defined in some machine understandable way(Say JSON). I see https://github.com/TeX-Live/installer/blob/master/install-tl#L2969-L2977 where it says, 
> Schemes and collections (and packages) are ultimately defined by the files in the C<tlpkg/tlpsrc/> source directory.

Where I couldn't find such a directory either in that repo  https://github.com/TeX-Live/installer. Can you help me over here? 
Or is it in SVN repo? 

Another question, can the profile contain,  scheme and also collection be defined? Or there should be only one of two? What takes more priority between the two(scheme or collection)? The docs https://github.com/TeX-Live/installer/blob/master/install-tl#L2953-L2955 makes this unclear to me.

I thought about the chocolatey package yesterday night, I yes, splitting, do not do good I think(Single package would be better). Instead provide users option for collection and scheme. I will update the package https://github.com/naveen521kk/chocolatey-texlive. 

Regards,
Naveen
