Raphael, It wasn't I who edited the FAQ, nor am I an ftpmaster. I don't believe that this FAQ entry was made in order to make a rule on a new kind of issue. I think it is to clarify a misconception that seems to be becoming more common about "what is the source code". I don't belive that this stance we are taking about what constitutes source code is at all a new one. stew
