They shouldn't see tens of gigabytes. I'd say we're talking a few hundred megabytes. As Trevor also mentions, there is the SDK/ADT standalone toolchain for app development work which is worth looking at too. That could move the need for the core builds to a small number of people and/or central server. > Would you be interested in doing some consulting/contracting around > the issue? or know if some one that might be?

For me personally this isn't possible however there are a number of community members offering consultancy around the project who may be able to help and may get in touch :). Cheers, Richard
