Out of curiosity, by similar logic (ego, not releasing spec/sources...
slightly unrelated) -- what about ppl who use drivers who only supply
a binary object and wrapper source ? evil!

but... i don't subscribe to the debian 'gpl/bsd/x or nothing'
licensing stuff heh.

Who knows, if Hans doesn't have a say in 4 anymore... wonder if people
will circumvent his wishes and tweak it for kernel inclusion heh.
