Well, I installed using i-Installer a week or two ago, but my TeX  
usage is light enough these days that I haven't done much testing.   
Hence the lack of feedback :(.  If MacTeX results in i-Installer and  
i-Packages drying up, it begins to sound like a bad thing to support  
(killing the goose that lays the golden eggs).
