You can use unpy2exe to extract the .pyc and then use pyREtic to get the source code. I guess you can read the HOWTO and understand how to use these programs, but basically you go to the location of unpy2exe.py and run:

unpy2exe.py [-h] [-o OUTPUT_DIR] [-p PYTHON_VERSION] filename

thene go to the location of REpdb.py and run:

REpdb.py

set_project [new project name]

Select the python version

fs_um_decompile [location of pyc file]

The source should be in ...\Projects[new project name]\sourcecode\fs_um\
