I corresponded briefly with the project manager on the first day and he sent
me the following:
"All software related to the Epiphany chip (driver, dev tools) will be given
away as free open source. Can't comment on the exact license yet, whether it
is GPLv3 or some other permissive license like BSD. We need to study it some
more and talk to people in the open source software community."
I encouraged either GPLv3 or a dual-license approach which would allow for a
copyleft free software version of the driver/firmware, etc. We shall see
what license he chooses.
