What is the point of making binary-only releases of LGPL software?   
   
URE-1.0.1 _binaries_ are currently available (in a rather awkward format, I  
might add) for only a few platforms.   
   
Can the .tar.bz2, please, be made available too (as LGPL would imply)?   
   
Then, the libraries can be ported and *tested* independently on a new platform. 
  
 
Please, be sure to NOT package the STLport sources inside. STLport is a third 
party software and is already ported to more platforms than OOo. This applies 
to other 3rd-party packages (expat, sablotron, etc.), which are currently 
shipped inside OOo's giant distributions. 
 
Thank you!
