To my knowledge  Klaus Knopper has repeatedly stated that he would send
the source to anyone if they sent him the needed number of blank CD-Rs.
IMHO that's a reasonable way to distribute source, though slightly
inconvenient. The blank CD-Rs would be the "cost of physically performing
source distribution".

Also the source to stuff knoppix has modified can be found at
