The CCS blog now has a link for the full source. It's the last item in the left-hand column and it doesn't have a large heading like other items in that column.
The link leads to this page: http://ccs.tucows.com/blog/_WebPages/fullsource.html which gives a brief explanation and a link to download the full source.
