I hadn't checked tripwire.com, but if you look at http://www.tripwire.com/products/linux.cfm? you will see that the source
for the current version of Tripwire will only be made public next Fall.

But I believe you are partially right: I once heard that there was an "academic license" which granted access to the source
(not sure if it is the source for the *current* release, though). But I believe it wasn't similar to GPL.

Cheers,
