In the words of the hitch hikers guide to the galaxy...
Don't panic :-).

Rodney is incorrect - SNAP do make source available. Marc Kaplan
who is an engineer at SNAP is a member of the Samba Team, so
we will get this sorted out without upset :-).

Give them a short break, they just got bought by Adaptec (which
I think is really cool btw and should mean more resources for
Samba !) so they may be a little slower to respond than you'd
like, but you will definately get the source code.

Jeremy.
