Well, you did say "it doesn't really have much content".

About half is support frameworks - Python and QT mainly. Another third are python resources - python library and Python/QT interface.

No attempt is made to strip these frameworks and libraries down to just the parts that are used in calibre. Nor should there be such an attempt.
