Images (png, jpg, .ico, etc.) and similar types of binary only resources have long been acceptable although I cannot find a resource about this at the moment as the legal affairs committee is reorganizing documentation. BTW - SVG like CSS is textual language. Minified Javascript should not be in the source …. Any included binaries should consider the license for inclusion just like included source code. And NO compiled source although a testing jar can be rationalized. And of course these can be documented in rat-excludes and other locations.
