Sure, but the only type of distribution allowed under #2 is distribution under #1 (You may modify your copy or copies of the Program [...] and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above) which is distribution of "the Program's source code," with the additional permision of being able to distribute modified versions of that source code. [We come right back to the question of whether or not the binary is source. I claim it isn't in this case, and since what what would normally be source under the GPL is extant, I'd imagine a court would agree.] Don Armstrong -- Miracles had become relative common-places since the advent of entheogens; it now took very unusual circumstances to attract public attention to sightings of supernatural entities. The latest miracle had raised the ante on the supernatural: the Virgin Mary had manifested herself to two children, a dog, and a Public Telepresence Point. -- Bruce Sterling, _Holy Fire_ p228 http://www.donarmstrong.com http://www.anylevel.com http://rzlab.ucr.edu
