Alex, Justin,

Before you go any further into this discussion, please remember that
technically we don't even need to release the source for this.  No one is
going to download the source artifacts for the Installer.

The Installer is a convenience application we provide to our users so that
they can easily download and assemble the SDK.

Please keep the big picture in the mind before starting another licensing
discussion.  This list is very big and we don't want to waste the time with
inconsequential discussions.

Thanks,
Om
