How come you don't have an option to download everything including the source for all the packages that is being offered? I just want the latest version of everything including the source. When I first started setup.exe, I thought that I would be able to switch between stable versions, to current versions to experimental versions of every package that I can select with one click. Instead, I had to click 30-50 different packages, click 3-5 times on each package to determine if I want to skip, ver.1, or ver. 1.1, and don't even mention that if I want the source that I have to click that too - it's becoming too much for a Microsoft mouse jock! I appreciate all the choices and I do understand that you have to check dependencies to make sure that everything works together. There is just sometimes that my lazy ass don't want to have to click much. Heck, I want an automatic feed if I can help it. Where is the source to setup.exe so that I can see what it takes to change it? Will it be hard?
