I agree.

As you've just said this is a *source* tarball.  A .zip file containing
.class files definitely does not count as a source.  Altough this way
of distributing is popular in java world, I think it'd be much nicer
to simply have separate *binary* distribution of the glibj.zip.

glibj-0.12.zip anyone?
