If I remember well, the reason was the installer would be much bigger if we
still included it. And we would also have to carry the pgAdmin CHM, and the
Slony one, and the EnterpriseDB one and now the Greenplum one. And what about
translations? If we do this, 90% of the installer size would be for docs. Kind
of strange if you want my opinion.

The way we do it now allows you to read the docs on the Internet. But you can
grab of copy of those, put them on your hard disk, and change the preferences
to show them instead of the internet ones.
