  • Thread-topic: the neverending docs download story

I downloaded Xcode 3.1. This was a 1 GB download, of which about 400 MB is
the core reference doc set.

So once everything was installed, I started up Xcode, and started reading
the documentation. As I did so, I noticed that it was downloading 300 MB
*more* for the core reference doc set.

When that had installed itself, I quit Xcode. I later started Xcode up
against and read some more documentation. Meanwhile, it was downloading 500
MB **more** for the core reference doc set.

Is this a bug? Will it ever end? Why can't the original 1 GB download
include the complete current documentation? Or if it does, what's all this
additional downloading?

Thx - m.
