I'll bite (and pre-announce a little application that will be available 
soon).

The reason I have been pretty silent last week is that I am working on a 
new delivery mechanism for my TeX distribution. Essentially, it is a 
generic package installer which is http-aware, which means that packages 
may be remote. It also has an auto-update feature, remove feature, (and 
many more features).

With a mechanism like this, I can split my distribution easily in many 
chunks. When I finish the application (somewhere this week, I hope), it 
will be available with 3 packages: TeXLive-bin (6MB), teTeX-texmf (40MB) 
and ghostscript6 (maybe teTeX-bin too). But when the system is there, it 
will be far easier for me to support separate additions, like cm-super, 
latex2html, or whatever is my or your fancy.
