Ok, but if I understood you correctly - it is ok if we do not include
the actual source and instead point to our server where the pristine
original source and binary distribution files are located (copied from
swish-e.org)?

Btw, this is only in order to keep the download in trim - I don't mind
bundling the source too in theory. In fact, the source for Swish-e is
pretty small now that I look more closely...

Yeah, sure. :)

Gjallar is definitely not Win32 only but it is only for Win32 that we
want to disitribute Gjallar with "everything included" to give the
developers/users playing with it the least hassle.

The Linux/Unix crowd is a different audience and for them we instead
include instructions to install/build Swish-e (and graphviz and one or
more things).
