We should remove the .info file.

If we remove the .info file drush will automatically download the repo into .drush file, which is better than what currently happens.

Right now if you do drush dl drupalcs inside a site it will download it to the module directory.

This is a small change. But i'll wait till we're all in agreement.

I like the info file because drupal.org adds a nice timestamp to dev tarballs. So you always know how old the snapshot is, if you cannot or want not use Git.

Hmm, I've no preference here.
But is there a way to tell drush where to move the download?

This is suddenly a lot more relevant, given the context of #1547782: Drush command.

But is there a way to tell drush where to move the download?

drush dl --destination=/var/tmp drupalcs-7.x-1.x-dev

Another idea: I have moved the info file to the Drupal subfolder, let's see if this works with drush. We need to wait until the commit is packaged into the dev version.

Yes, that works now. Updated installation and usage doc pages.
