Yeah any older source that is outdated and predates major content changes, those files exist and are doing nothing more than collecting dust and being used as reference. There would be no harm in releasing said source because it's not being used and would create another repack to go along with PEQ and ax_classic databases which are currently available for release.

The only stoplight to this idea would be the devs refusing to handover their work, but EQEMU in general has always been an open source project and anyone from the C+ devs to the actual players providing examples and /bug reports have contributed to making P99 happen, so I don't see why they can't release an older source to the public, if nothing more than creating a better more stable EQEMU community and possibly creating new revisions that can be pooled together from multiple projects.
