Hello,
I would like to commit urtw(4) driver for supporting Realtek's 8187L
wireless chipset based on USB into HEAD by the end of the week if there
are no objections. And the license of files would be as follows that
AFAIK it's based on OpenBSD's template license file:

Because I'm not a lawyer it'd definitely fail to answer about your
detailed questions. Just one thing I want to is that it's okay if it's
enough to use in *BSD, OpenSolaris and etc. Not want to go into
troubles. :-)
