"future steps"? Hah. My code is going to stay GPLv2 as the v3 license is horrible for kernel code for all of the reasons I have said in the past, plus a few more (what, I can make an "industrial" product but not a commercial one? That's horrible...) thanks, greg k-h - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
