I think it's premature to ask for source to something that is a DEMO of an
engine that is INCOMPLETE.  It's not an issue of childishness or
insecurity for them to want to hold off until they get the bugs out, add
the features they want and clean up the code.  I'm glad when people post
executables of works in progress.  I don't wanna futz with code that
doesn't work completely yet and hasn't been adaquately documented to be of
any use.  More than likely they'll change things around as they
optimize the code anyway, so it's better to wait.  It's cool they wanna
show us anything before it's ready.  I'm sure if you asked them they'd
tell you what they're doing.  Heck even I have been known to share
techniques and routines from time to time.

relax.
