As of tomorrow's build, the Windows installer and .zip file will come without the source code and CPAN folders. Only the plugins will remain in source code, as they're loaded dynamically. All the remaining files (which were never used anyway) are now bundled into the binaries.
If you want to have to source, feel free to download the tarballs or use subversion to checkout the latest and greatest code at any time.

Michael, does this mean that the code to support all the different player types, including SliMP3, and different display types is always loaded? Normally, much of this is dynamically loaded as required.
Alan.

The perl execution behaviour should not have changed. It's only bundled into the binary, then extracted at runtime. I must admit I didn't verify memory usage, but I'd expect it to be the same.
