Hm, is that a generally agreed on definition (say, on debian-legal)?
_My_ preferred way to modify a WAV file for example depends on how it
was created. Say you use om-synth for that, then the om patch is what
I'd want to modify, not the resulting WAV file. Similarly with a video:
Created in Blender? Give me the blend file and all resources it needs.
What's the use of having every frame as a PNG? Editing in cinepaint? Now
what if the movie was created with a commercial program like 3D studio?
Then I can't do much without buying the program...
Anyway, if it is "debian-legal save" just to provide the WAVs and PNGs
etc., we should bo good to go, no?
