This is not a problem.

In section 4 the Lesser Gnu Public License states: ---- If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code. ---- To fully comply with the license terms (and set a good example) you should provide a separate link on your web site that allows one to download the full Jmol source code distribution. > I hope I am not required to "bulk up" Protein Explorer, or MolSlides > directories, with jmol source code, in particular. Understood. People will not be 'compelled' to download the source code, but it should be available from your site in case someone wants it.
