The README for the decklink-sdk SBo states how to obtain the source 
code. It requires registration, but "Desktop Video SDK 10.9.5" (which is 
the DeckLink SDK) downloads successfully (I just confirmed it by 
re-registering and re-downloading).

This is a pretty important SDK in professional video (Black Magic offers 
hugely popular video capture cards), so decklink-sdk should not be 
removed from SBo.
