I read it as a statement, also.  But I am curious.  If it is freeware
then why has the author chosen not to release source code.  Perhaps,
he/she can explain?

I think that it would be a nice trend when releasing
not-for-profit-software to release source code with it.

FYI: This is not a flame/condemnation/criticism.
