Re: Source files in distribution ?

[Martin van den Bemt <ml...@mvdb.net>]

I think there was a big discussion on tomcat-dev about this a year ago. 
Someone suggested to remove the source, since it took extra download
time and wasn't used anyway. The thread was pretty big as far as I
remember..
I guess if the source is still distributes with the binary, it was -1 on
that one ;)
