That's amazing. It's like these last three years just melted away now. Oh wait. I do not know what grass you smoke or what fun events happened when you visited allwinner, but all i see you do now is grandstanding about how things will be soo great in future. All you do is talk, talk, talk, and i see no actions. And now you even are going down the route of eroding away at Allwinners legal requirements, especially those which cost time and money to fix, two things Allwinner clearly still is not willing to invest. On top of that, you have started to badmouth people who have actually done stuff in their lifetimes. What gives you that right? And what's next on this path? Why don't you just shut up, completely, until you actually have something worth talking about. Say, after you produced code and/or datasheets.
