Hi all,
It really bothers me that the ipq-wifi firmware is stored in git as
binary files.
Sorry, this sounds like a recent topic: "Moving ipq-wifi to a dedicated repo"
<http://lists.openwrt.org/pipermail/openwrt-devel/2022-June/038969.html>
what wasn't really discussed in that topic though: "Who exactly owns
these blobs?"
Technically, storing them anywhere else is a grey area... But once they hit the
linux-firmware.git repository it becomes a different story. Mostly because
this is done by Qualcomm which adds these to their libraries there under
their license.
Yes, that is the same topic. Thank you for the pointer! I am going to
stop writing now.
Alex
Cheers,
Christian
