Removing all the code in a driver, rather than simply disabling its requests for non-Free firmware, creates another major burden: any patch that touches files in that driver becomes an additional maintenance burden.
I don't see why. Would you explain? When a patch tries to change a file which is not present, that part of the patch will be ignored, right? So where's the burden? _______________________________________________ linux-libre mailing list linux-libre@fsfla.org http://www.fsfla.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-libre
