Gadgeteer must go on diet

Gadgeteer modules has the abillity to add references to the project, right?

Then why does the default template for a Gadgeteer 4.2 Application include the following references that will probably only be used with a screen?
Microsoft.SPOT.Touch
Microsoft.SPOT.Graphics
Microsoft.SPOT.TinyCore

Why are these included by default?
Microsoft.SPOT.Hardware.Serial
System.HTTP

I’m only asking as those libs only waste ram/flash on a board like the Cerberus. Those libs can be added automatically when a screen module or ethernet module is added…

Tiny core is needed for dispatcher. But agree.

Post on codeplex so we all can vote please

One word, ReSharper, keeps my deployments as small as possible.

Thanks everyone. Kerry has acknowledged that this should be looked at for the next Gadgeteer core…
