 Yes, let's hope that they do decide to GPL the SRC code.
(including all of the utilities)
In the mean time, here's what's still available for download from Lineo.

 In addition, I have the SRC code for....
IBMBIO.COM, IBMDOS.COM and COMMAND.COM (OpenDos v7.01)
(the license agreement allows for redistribution of the unaltered zip file)
If anyone would like a copy of dossrc.zip
Just say the word and I'll eMail it to you as soon as possible.
