For me the size is not important. Space is not the issue these days.
I voted for 2-5MB.
20MB is maybe way over the top. Better to get more modulation.

voted for 500 kb because if you have more than 1000 * 500kb = 488,28125 MB ! traffic ratio!

Why do you care of traffic ratio for a 7-zip download hosted by Google? :/

I also voted for 2-5MB.
I think the best thing is having the best and complete package for a CMF (also I'm not worried about including the huge HTMLPurifier in case of pasers transition from BBcode to HTML, or other usefull modules found somewhere).

I voted 2-5 Mb... BUT size will be important if number off downloads grow...
Like pieter said: 20 MB is over the top.

but, keep it as small as possible.. I see too many packages that are just way too big :(
so plugins is the way to go

Bandwidth as far as download per the site/host is not of much concern to anyone. Or even the storage on a site.

Its more what the user sees when downloading. I know a few times i've downloaded say Joomla its at 6mb and growing. I'm just like wow I have to download 6mb, bloated much?

I voted 1-2mb, though I could deal with up to 3mb or so, 5 is pushing it. We should try our best to keep it small though. If we ever reach 5mb size or so we should really consider evaluating what we are including.

I interesting Idea though, we could support something like Jquery does, choose what you want in your package when you download it.

04-08 mb

Siena is already ~780kb and it will require throwing away all the skins to make it smaller than 500kb, which is not likely to happen.

Clean small core, and a LOADS off plugins..
just choose what you want.. and install it
