Make it open source.

Good answer. That way, after everyone has had their way with the code, it
will be so horribly obfuscated as to prevent ANY kind of engineering. In
other words - typical Open Sores hash.

Use an obfuscator:

You will find some links here:

Notice that VS.NET 2003 includes the Light Version of Preemptive's
obfuscator.

some people have to make a living on writing code, open source bits a
strangle hold on that profit from closed source code... not everyone will
pay for support, therefor a large amount of lost money... open source isn't
always the answer.. for standards it is, for proparity applications it's not
