Actually, we don't have any power over *either* of those alternatives. Our policies won't change which firmware is on disk and which is on chip any more than they will cause hardware manufacturers to start caring about free software. So, I suggest we distribute the firmware if we are allowed to, and we label it "non-free". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
