Hi,

Firstly, let me just say that BitNami is performing a great service to the open-source community – keep up the great work guys!

I’m a big fan of Alfresco from using the demo site and am wanting to install it locally. Unfortunately, with the smallest BitNami version being about 160MB, it’s a bit hefty to download for some of us. That’s primarily due to the inclusion of OpenOffice I’m guessing (which is usually about 100MB). From what I can gather, OO is not critical to Alfresco’s functioning but is merely there if you want integration with Office and conversion to PDF. Also, I’m sure many would-be downloaders already have OO or have access to it. As such, do you think it’s possible that another stack of Alfresco could be provided that excludes OO?

Thanks for your time and help.

Hi Vaughan,

Yes, it makes sense, we will offer that option in the future (about 2-3 weeks from now). Right now our focus is on getting the Alfresco OS X stack out. Thanks a lot for the feedback
