This has nothing to do with WYSIWYG editors (which I freely admit to loath).

The issue that there's usually no reason to have third party code in our
CVS but convenience. Other people's convenience may however
inconvenience the Drupal CVS maintainers. And since the people who run
this thing are usually very busy, we've chosen to rather inconvenience
the users and authors of WYSIWYG modules (or any modules depending on
third party code for that matter).

If I create a module that parses uploaded files, do I get to include
binaries and sources for pstoedit, wvHTML and the like?

Cheers,
	Gerhard
