They were copyrighted as soon as copyrights were accepted for
software.

>Program), PO (Program Offering) and PP (Program Product).

It wasn't a hierarchy; they were independent categories, in no
particular order.

>All but PP were source-included software.

No. Each category had software with and without source code. Some
program products not only included source code but were maintained at
the source level.
