Subject: How will removing the Crafty FTP site help?

I'm missing something here..

   If some jerk wants to distribute modified binaries of crafty 16.6, what's
going to prevent him from changing the version number and continuing his assault
on future versions of crafty?  After all, he's got the source already...

   Seems to me the only people this is hurting are those who don't yet know
about crafty...  Plus, with the number of people requesting passwords to the ftp
site, how can they be monitored?  If just one person posts the source, or emails
it to a few others.. hasn't all been lost?
