John,
Would this apply to our packages (.lrp) also? If so, nearly all of our
packages are non-compliant. If I recall correctly, source of packages
only compiled (not modified) by us (LEAF) or the Linux Router Project
were always pointed upstream. I think Mathew Grant was the only one to
include package source along with .lrp packages he produced.

If this describes the situation correctly, it gives us even more
incentive to migrate to a ports/gento based system for our .lrp
packages.
