Straying a bit off topic now, but this isn't as trivial as it you make it sound (for JPEG's, at least). It's almost a certainty that the preferred modifiable form of a digitally created image isn't a JPEG, but a format specific to the graphics application being used (the Gimp uses XCF, for instance). Yet, we're not very unhappy about distributing JPEG's only -- main is full of them. But I'm sure this has been discussed to death earlier and I see no RC bugs on kdewallpapers, so.. > I'm guessing this is a SCUMM-based game?

It's not SCUMM, but very similar, I'd guess. The game in question is called "Beneath a Steel Sky", in case you were wondering. But the source code vs. binary question is a very tricky one indeed, just as with the JPEG example I mentioned above. I've asked upstream if he knows for sure that the files are source code (GPL-wise), and suggested simply using the GPL if so. -- Tore Anderson
