   I think that's a pretty stiff way to look at things.  In the past a LOT of   
   BBBS utils were distributed with no source.  It's not something new that Rudi   
   just started :)  No one is saying you have to run his utilities, Torbjorn.  In   
   the same way, if he decides to release the source, good.  If not, no big deal   
   :)   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
