hi all, it would be a sad day when the source is not available for those interested. it would tend to lead to the same proprietary situation which it appeared only yesturday we wre ridding ourselves off:() i am not sure about anyone else here but as i am interested for instance in the internals i would sorely miss it.. perhaps it could be compared to getting a stereo without the circuitry as was the case a long time ago. but it does lead to better code as people i think try harder when there code is being scrutinized. perhaps a better approach would be like the linux kernel scenario release the code in all its glory and allow others to build whatever apps compiled or straight src that they wished making a choice according to their needs. then the public decides as is always the case.
