Re: Do we need Javadoc in binary distribution? Was: [RELEASE] Apache Cassandra 4.0-alpha3 released

I like this idea for keeping binary deployment size down. I'm not sure 
how to handle it for the tarballs, but we could certainly split the docs 
out of the debian and rpm packages to add 
cassandra-docs_<version>.{deb,rpm} packages, so they are installable 
separately, if the user wants them. This is common when docs get large. 
I suppose the same could be done for 
apache-cassandra-docs-<version>,tar.gz, but I'm not sure about the 
release policy part of things here. Needs research.

Please, open a JIRA on this as a packaging improvement.

Kind regards,
Michael
