That doesn't really answer the question:-) I'm wondering on what basis we would make the distinction between core and tarball. Potential usefulness, longevity, quality etc? I'm not asking because I expect to have completely clear criteria at this stage, but because I want to know that there are some criteria. If there are not, then we may be making an unnecessary distinction. Phil
