    Wasn't this a long thread a month or two ago? A brief summary: 
Andrew Von Dollen ported it, then stopped working on the project and 
never released it. Ilya was a beta tester, and after waiting months for 
an official release, decided to post the Jezzball beta that AVD had sent 
him without his or Magnus Svedin's permission. Thats why there was no 
claim to authorship and no source. After that long thread on the list, 
Ahmed got a hold of the source from AVD and recieved permission to 
continue the project. He then ported it to CrASH and added a highscore 
keeper. 
   So yes, it is okay to have it in your archives. The ASH version(1.0) 
is obsolete though, the CrASH version is 1.6. It has a readme and 
authorship claim. No source, but that will change in the next update if 
there is one.
  Sam
