SA:MP is not an open-source project. You can only modify code/scripts for the server, you can't change the client.
Is this guy serious?
The client & server are NOT open-source, but some of the gamemodes are.

the thing is I flicked throught the page and saw the adress server download address - http://files.sa-mp.com/samp03asvr_R7.tar.gz (and I had this association - .tar.gz=it's open source)

.tar.gz is a compression format, something like a *.zip

.tar files are collections of other folders and files in one big "tarball". Its usually a UNIX/Linux format.
The .gz (GZip) comes along when you compress a tarball using gzip. There is also .bz (for bzip, but not widely used that I'm aware of)
