I'm totally about free and open source software, I'm just not about Stallman and the FSF dictatorship about the definition of what exactly is free and what unfree. (see the public argument between him and me which was on youtube a while ago) Rest assured Allwinner is highly interested into mainlining as much of the drivers as possible since they think as well that mainlining the drivers will spare a lot of additional development efforts in the future. Also our goal is to move more towards being a community friendly manufacturer so we build an open sourced platform of which everyone can reuse design for his own projects.
Hopefully that doesn't sound too assholish from me, but I had a lot of trouble with some of the people (Stallman and Luke) already which were mentioned in the last few emails...
