I would look at it this way... it was javascript that controlled one of the
features of the system (the newserver) that likely would not have been
there to change if the project was closed source.  If it had turned out to
be part of the C source, I could have tried to modify it there also.

That sounds like it could be useful if one wanted to be able to do so.
