I don't know about you, but given the choice of: 1) A binary, hex, or other machine code source that I have right in front of me; 2) A hypothetical source in a high-level language like C (*cough*) that may or may not exist and that I may or may not be able to get hold of... ... I will take a bird in the hand every time. And I do think that putting GPL notices into files implies that you think they are source. Now, whether or not Debian *wants* to distribute such things is a different question, which should probably be answered on a case-by-case basis. All IMNSHO. Cheers, Nick
