Re: Sources in Binary Distributions

[Fabien Le Floc'h]

As a tomcat user, I am not so enthousiast about your idea of removing the sources from 
the binaries.

Almost every user download only the binaries. Having the sources inside means bringing 
more developers to the Tomcat project, just because it will be easier to take a look 
at the sources (since it is already installed in their tomcat dir). The more you look 
at the sources, the more you are likely to be involved.

The sources are only about 2MB and 1 directory. It is anything but a mess on the 
harddisk. Furthermore it is the exact sources for the particular binary the user has, 
not some more recent or older sources.
