what if you become part of openmoko? Just sign some kind of work contract (like other freelancers had and still have with openmoko), but with only USD 1 in return for your work, adding a clause that you keep the copyright on your work? This way you are legally part of openmoko, have access to the docs, and can work on the code. -- - Harald Welte <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://openmoko.org/ ============================================================================ Software for the world's first truly open Free Software mobile phone _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
