Subject: Re: uuen/de code and software exchange

I'm not in favor of binary only public domain software.  There are too
many brain-damaged idiots out there that think a good joke is to write a
program to trash the system, call it something else, and release it to
the public domain with a name that sounds like it does something great.
I like to see what I'm getting, and I trust no one.

Besides, if you don't have the source, you can't play with the operation
of the code if you are so inclined.
