the question is: Does Debian guarantee (or at least promise) to provide the sources for a sufficient amount of time _in the required version_?I guess with http://snapshot.debian.org/ we do (and having AGPL software in Debian include a link to there would already be very nice), but having the source shipped with the package itself would solve a this problems more elegantly, and would also work in a lonely-island-setting.
