They have clearly labeled the packages as Bacula, which is fine with me, and
although I couldn't initially find the code on their site, it does exist, and
they quickly told me where to find it.
They are after all a commercial firm, which is fine with me, so one doesn't
expect them to put the source code download in huge letters. What counts is
the source code is there, and we can have access to it.

The name Bacula is trademarked, but anyone can use it providing the package
they distribute works the same way as the officially released version (not
including the bugs) :-).
