@jameswlane @ericrasch @jimmynotjim I can't remember why I put this in here.

Was it so that we didn't get themes or plugins when upgrading?

Did we want this behavior to be the default when starting from scratch (my gut says "no")?

This is from WordPress own download API it will download just the WordPress core without the wp-content directory

We was talking about adding a upgrade feature and this would allow us to upgrade WordPress without having to deleting themes and plugins we don't work IE: Hello Dolly, Twenty Ten.

I agree not to use this from scratch I am more thinking Genesis:Upgrade and it using the no-content package

We may be handling WordPress as a dependency for v1.0.0, so I'm not sure what we'll do here.

Closing for now, but if we still version WordPress with the repo, we'll have the generator use the no-content download if it's not a new project.

That sounds like a better plan!
