Nononono Doug. What they're discussing is perfectly ok and is done in other projects. bootstrap.sh is a pre-configuration script not actual thrift source.
That's why I asked whether it was source code. If it's not considered such, then it shouldn't be included. We're proposing to declare it "non-source" primarily because it causes problems when included in releases. Otherwise we'd be happy to declare it part of the project's source, no? I understand there's precedent for this, and I'm fine excluding it, but, if there's another way that permits us to release more source-like stuff and still not confuse users, I think that'd be preferable. It's not black-and-white, source-or-non-source.
