</span></span>I asked that 3+ years ago and i think they are stored on Oi build<br>
servers, but not accessible from outside.<br>
<br>
It would be the best to always have all sources available at any time,<br>
so all source is fetched from OI servers, but it could be a project for<br>
itself to make upstream sources available locally on OI servers.<br>
<br>
Maintainers didn't like this, because fetching source archives from<br>
remote server is more simple for a building process.<br>
<br>
I also used to point out the legality of even distributing precompiled<br>
binaries before, without providing sources at any time. (and for any<br>
distributed binary).<br>
Having local store of source archives from the upstream projects,<br>
having all sources always available at OI site, would fix both legal and<br>
build problems and elevate problem if network source is not available.<br>
Maybe just make local source code archives on Oi servers, visible to all<br>
users? <br></blockquote></div></div></blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
