Get Expansion Packs

[BartHound]

Would be nice when launching the Expansion Packs Option, that I see a list in the box that I can just select and load/install/Uninstall, or select and then press Get Expansion Pack from the interface, rather than clicking Get Expansion Pack, take me to a website and then download from there, but then I suppose some Federal Agencies may not like that either, but IMHO I think it may be a bit more streamlined.  Looking good so far;)

But then there is the additional download, it seems like this should be just one process, and just get downloaded.  Much simpler, but then more size, I imagine, perhaps a bit more description on the differences on the web from here:

I ran this the first time, and it was determining sizing requirements.  It ran for a about 10 minutes.  I kill it, then re launch, and it completes.  There was an issue similar to this experience with ArcLogistics.  Same process followed, in that second time around no wait, but initially it seems locked, until the kill, perhaps they are related so how.

Downloads for SDK, and Projections handle A LOT slower than Data Access, not the actual download but the process to instantiate the download.  This is from firefox 3.6.  Data Access process was just about instantly.  These are all similar sizes, should be similar experience, but then perhaps this is from our side, or lots are downloading.
