Comment:

 WordPress doesn't need to offer the sources, '''because you can get them
 from the original source'''.

 SWFUpload is a ''free'' package, licensed under the MIT license.

 http://www.swfupload.org/
 http://swfupload.googlecode.com/

 WordPress has made no modifications to their sources whatsoever. You can
 just go download them yourself. We have links to their sources right there
 in the JS files associated with them.

 Plus, I'm still totally at sea as to why you keep using the word
 "sources". There is ONE binary file in the package (not counting images).
 The source is clearly pointed out, both in the files and here. It's under
 a totally free license, even freer than GPL. and their license does not
 require us to provide their source code.

 Please stop reopening this unless you have a valid point that has not been
 addressed. I will just close it again if you do.
