If they want something earlier than 7.0.0, we only release that on a case by case basis, and the default answer is no. They'll need a good reason why they need it, and why the current 7.0.x release's source isn't good enough. They'll also need be someone reputable. Someone from a university or other research institution is more likely to get the source than someone from a big company, but they're more likely to get it than some random person with no particular affiliation.
-If you think they're reputable, ask them to not redistribute the pre-7.0.0 source and to keep it reasonably safe. If they agree, start the process of getting them access. Add a comment to the ticket noting that you think they deserve access ("=acta 12345 --comment=") then assign it to Kristine ("=assigna 12345 kludwig=").
