I do not think we have a policy regarding dependencies, but we have about options, the default set should be the one who benefits most people (as in, most people should not have to enable more options by themselves.) The oposite may have been true years ago, but these days, 2GB, while it may feel big by human standard, is quite nothing, hard drives are in the TB, SD cards are also getting there, these days, SD cards up to 32GB are available for less than $10. --=20 Mathieu Arnold --u2onohjzrtusma7x Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAABCgB9FiEEOraXidLtEhBkQLpbOkUW81GDzkgFAlsx6FhfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldDNB QjY5Nzg5RDJFRDEyMTA2NDQwQkE1QjNBNDUxNkYzNTE4M0NFNDgACgkQOkUW81GD zkiSYhAArjSPNccydWwJbWyqH5wPQPwb39Eo2bwX0CEsQ3dvLrWtCZtz6zx1bycf vF0/mj162DN0CO3RNV0+O2FiRzTMX1fGvgqRGu3rfWaqbzFGDXFo4JcI+TH7i+6n y+jw3tjGZk5xJsy+7u9qHi6MjvcQI3qrtaOij4RE68BQfEKI4cYP4yCFD2BZ1MFE 1k4iKX3qUsAFxrts5kQN9aH0B/xGvYVuhzTE9BX8GJ6SberVDnzaS7SjL7+txQIj v/B8vD8ATofvWvSmemu9Lo90zm58zPlBtaOneC9Xftip/51bzFNX550Gsi5aGOEL NDoFRQmSGvMF3HXsidnATIp3n9NUAIOjMZsQiVbMgRZ4HtlYPbHAz04OI+TBinfa l03dxrx+7lhjzcW4p/68Bqi+SYui/EIyTyRQO7n8MThzqtEjpHdpgmrZ7cUly4em tqQIy9JvtgtGap/z5wAGSWbFQQpiTL5ijFE5nx+8LcYroy3EgefFoS2k1xOXol7c RbNN0gryIZ2nQuXInQz3BTbdywIbfFzZ8fHULZWkd5CFTxDhyq9WGrl6SNMVfMSc ee56MXoJrZo6wMR7zAhbBYukET9RkGDMYwszXcggcjbmx5EkS0EGF6nfY7Ox6sUm S7LvGkw0zEoLIVN5woMZ2ii5nJ8xW43Y14pAQPXX0Q/HI4O8mMw= =126i -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --u2onohjzrtusma7x--
