that files are not sources, sources are in linux project and mozilla
proyects. Linuxlibre and ice-cat  are usefull, to aloud people to use only
free software without  restrictions, to know what happens in each machine
(blobs) (if they have the hardware) or to aloud to sell software, but they
don' t provide sources. They provide a sub product of the real sources, that
are not free. A restricted set of software that is free.

these files are modified by hand or in automatic way (like kernel in ututo),
bur are not sources

call them sources is like call sources a grammar in c produced by
yacc/bisson

there are not legaly sources, and is not a good idea to think of them as a
new project, becouse the people that really do the code are not in
linux-libre nor in ice cat project.  They are not new projects, nor forks,
and continue to be that way, each new version is constructed from a new
version of the very sources. Only one criterion: remove non free, restrict
the universo of machines to the one in wich only free soft. could be run.
