It's not usefull when it comes to security related products like RenGuard, since many of its security features lies in the closed source client.. there would be dozens of illegal branches of RenGuard which have scanning disabled etc, if the source code were available.

We have several people under a non disclosure agreement which have examined the inner workings of renguard from a security standpoint
