You're making us at OpenNETCF work! We can't provide answers for the simple

1.30. What is the footprint of the .NET Compact Framework?

Why is the 2003 footprint 1.35M, but the 2002 footprint is 1.55M?

A 13% reduction is pretty significant - just curious...

My guess (and it's just a guess) is that they're talking the ARM4I or T,
which enables some 16-bit instructions for the processor. This often
results in a decent code size reduction without changing anything else.
