"The general rule is, if you distribute binaries, you must distribute
the complete corresponding source code too."[1]

"If you make object code available on a network server, you have to
provide the Corresponding Source on a network server as well."[2]

And having a jalview package in the archive does not help as this does
not guarantee we have the source for the exact version of jalview
bundled with ensembl.
