</span>Note that you're going to have a *really* hard time shipping hardware<br>
with a legal Linux driver you can't release source for. You probably<br>
want to talk to your corporate legal eagles and explain the GPL to them,<br>
before somebody *else's* legal eagle explains the GPL to them, in the form<br>
of a injunction.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I have have an appreciation of the GPL too, and I love open source. I fight with my organization all the time about what should and shouldn't be released. I know that anybody that gets the binary will also get the source code, but our distribution list is rather limited.</div></div><br></div></div>
