The definition of source for data files is actually quite clear. It is a preferred way of modifying files, something an author would use to generate modified files. For example wav files for sound effects, uncompressed videos, etc. The problem is that data contained in lossless formats usually requires huge amounts of storage space, so many projects simply do not bother providing these. I am not saying that this is in any way good, but I am not aware of a single project that has gotten into legal problems because of this. The right thing, of course, would be to put these files up for download somewhere outside the release package, or (in case of GPL) provide a written offer for providing the files on request. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFEtfNztOe9mov/y4RArfkAKCz+Msxf+p9vZHwoouATodYZmSIFACguTMn yTahmVPRxl9Etqe5gFz6Lms= =oH24 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Warzone-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev
