That is right, we dont enforce from source builds, but we do need the
content to be open source ideally, or you to have demonstrate-able
rights to redistribute unconditionally, any content imported via that route.

What would this reproduceable builds chain look like if we were to start
looking at Maven/MEAD ? Also, how would we verify the content that goes
through ?

Also, is this literally just a case of doing a bootstrap or is the
intention to stay with that model longer term ?
