There is no Hague Convention specification that you must maintain code just because you let other people see it. Don Knuth springs to mind as someone who is capable of releasing software and not regarding this as some kind of Hemingwayan Albatross. It is annoying to have to replicate work someone else has done merely because they lack the spine to release it. khm
