You're not required to put the sources up for ftp on your site, but if you don't, then you're supposed to respond when somebody phones or sends paper mail (yes, this really happens) or whatever, asking for sources. If they're satisfied with a pointer elsewhere, *and* the elsewhere actually works, then you don't have to do anything more. But it's kind of a nuisance to deal with lots of individual contacts of that sort, so the simplest thing is just to leave an archive of the sources in the same place as the binaries. You don't have to make it particularly easy or convenient to get at the sources, so do it in a way that saves you the most trouble. Stan
