F.2.16 Does Red Hat Linux include source code?

Yes. We include the exact source that was used to build the distribution. From release 2.0 on, Red Hat Linux is built on a packaging system called RPM that ONLY uses pristine source (the same as what you'd find at the author's ftp site) and possibly a Red Hat patch. Complete information on RPM is available on http://www.redhat.com.
