The TeX Live image now comes in at 662 mbytes.

who has suggestions?
 - ditch some Unix binaries
 - ditch the support/ directory
 - throw away some packages
 - remove all but the most basic formats from texmf/web2c

if you are interested:

9436	texmf/bibtex
10832	texmf/tpm
28180	texmf/web2c
50600	texmf/tex
58524	texmf/source
166848	texmf/doc
179836	texmf/fonts

any ideas, requests, most welcome. TeXLive as it is today cannot fly.
