Re: WDSC, refresh pack V6.0.1 and WDSC Advanced Edition, refresh pack V6.0.1 Announced

This part seems interesting:

|New WDSC Lite technology preview provides a lightweight
edit/compile/debug |environment for developing native i5/OS applications
(256 MB of RAM is |recommended to operate effectively).

So, does this mean we install less stuff, or install all of WDSC and
choose a run option that limits the amount of stuff being loaded into
memory ?  

We are preparing to move to WDSC (or at least make a valiant attempt).
I'm currently using CODE. 

We actually just had all our development boxes upgraded to 1gb of memory
in preparation for this move, but we really aren't planning to do any
java or webfacing right off the bat, so this "lite" version sounds like
it may be the ticket.

I have the disks for WDSC version 6.0 right here at my desk ready to go,
I've just been waiting until my latest "hot" project is done before I
can take the day or so it will require to install.  (I have a botched
installation of WDSC 5.1.2 to "uninstall" first). 

Should I hold off and install the 6.0.1 release, or will I need to
install 6.0 then apply the "refresh pack" ?  I guess I'm not clear on
what "refresh pack" really means.  Sounds more like something to tack
onto an existing product than a new version.  Is that correct? 

Does the "lite" version function the same way the full version would as
far as native i5/OS applications are concerned ?
