Dan, Seth and all,

Thank you.  I will try to use gnome-vfs-extras in spare time.
Actually, the same topic was discussed in the end of last month here.

Alex said as follows.

I cannot recognize this message that gnome-vfs-extras cannot be
distributed with the core gnome-vfs code.  Current gnome-vfs-extras
contains seems to contain full samba sources.  I think there are no
problem around license since Samba is GPL2 like as gnome-vfs.  Users
of gnome-vfs(-extras) are able to obtain the original Samba's full
source code, aren't they?  Or is it technical problem, such as possibility
of conflict with another installed Samba?  Please tell me why and
discuss to solve the problem.
