At the risk of beating a dead horse:

"Unless you know C++ you shouldn't have binaries"
I would argue that this statement is more or less accurate. What I mean is that, if I were a developer, the only people I would want to have the binaries are people that can compile them. Why? Simple, if non-programers had access to the binaries, there would be many many more complaints on these boards saying things like, "AA's don't work", "It crashes when I zone", "I can't get it to work"... blah blah blah. No one wants to hear complaints about a product in developement... a product that eveyone acknowledges is NOT going to work all the time. I would think, the only people the developers really want to have the binaries, are the people that aren't going to come onto these boards and complaint, but rather, people who are going to look at the code to determine WHY something isn't working. In the grand scheme of things, they're doing this so that people without programming skills can run a server without having to worry about how it works.
