Carol Frampton commented on FLEX-33208:
---------------------------------------

This is sort of being done already via the license agreement screens.  Each individual file is not listed but the feature and what license covers it is listed.

> From Bertrand :
> IIUC the installer downloads a number of files (listed
> in installer/src/sdk-installer-config.xml) and installs them on the user's
> system.
> Does it make the user aware that that's happening? IMO there should be a
> confirmation somewhere, where the user is given the option of either
> a) Reviewing the list of files that are going to be downloaded, and
> accepting or rejecting the whole thing
> b) Say "I don't care, go ahead".
> My concern is that in terms of quality and security, we don't want Apache
> software to mess with people's systems without letting them know beforehand.
