This doesn't mean your "simple" tarball/script has to contain the entire Debian archive. It just means that you must offer the full sources from the same location from which you offer your modified (cut-down) version. In a different tarball. So although it'll still take up space on your server, you at least wouldn't be forcing anyone to do a huge download.
The problem is that I'm not sure if I have the source available or not in the first place.. Does anyone know if the debian dist. that's been recommded even comes w/ the source? If so, then I would think offering IT directly, then a slimmed down version of it (side by side, I can host both files if necessary) would cover the legalities; right?
