I did say it was a skilled offering. But, and this is just my
opinion, I think you are shooting yourself in the foot with the source
in the executable concept. If for no other reason than it's a
security risk and I'll just mention in passing the fact that Wannabee
is a contributor of some of RosAsm's executables.

_Facts_. No "opinion, on such points. Facts are that nesting
mono-files inside the executables has been a complete success.
First it makes all managements extreemely simple and secure.
Second, we have never heard any RosAsm user saying that he
would have lost his sources. Third, this is the perfect distro
model for GPLed Apps. Fourth, there are all required features
for saving the Sources. Including incremental savings.

So, what do have to say against? Where is the "security risk"?

As opposed i can fairly well tell you were the security risks
are with traditional methods. Do yo need examples of programs
which Sources are lost?!


Keep in mind that a Unix person would consider Windows
counter-intuitive. AKA - the humorous Mac / Windows debate.

I am used to Linux exploring since the earlier days, mind you.
