Dear Bill,

I don't know whether your post implies a question, but if you want to find the
pymol source code the following subversion repository might help:

 https://pymol.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pymol/trunk/pymol

The server was up about one minute ago.

But I agree that the address is well hidden and just know I could not find the
link in pymol.org that told me about the above address (it's probably still
there but seems hard to find - I suppose Warren DeLano would not be happy about
this ...)
