just realized that I can't release the driver since it contains (1)
binary firmware + (2) a binary component I don't have source for.
My understanding of GPL is that it will be impossible to use OpenPBX
with this

It is a 4xE1/T1 board in PCI cPCI form. I will need to interface to

There is no problem with binary drivers. The GPL provides
a test where you can determine if linking non-GPL code is OK.
Read the GPL or details but if the linked code uses a well

suppliers for the non-GPl'd binary then the binary, even
