Re^9: Automatically Converting Perl to C

I mean if you hide your sources on the moon

The user can't execute the program that's on the moon unless they are there too, in which case they don't need a NASA mission to steal its secrets.

Do you think the motivations to unveil his "secrets" are comparable?

Every case is different, but not really. The only secret an application can keep is the one noone cares to look for.

Here you go bringing up the sources again, and you're talking about a service rather than a distributable. Neither are relevant.	[reply]
