Absolutely right. And we'll get to that. Please just be patient. In fact, how much the company cares about tivoizing is completely irrelevant to that point. I shouldn't even have included it, but I did because I thought it would be useful as a boundary condition. So just disregard that. Is there agreement that, comparing tivoized and non-tivoized hardware, we get'd more contributions if the hardware is not tivoized, because users can scratch their own itches, than we would for tivoized hardware? -- Alexandre Oliva http://www.lsd.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/ FSF Latin America Board Member http://www.fsfla.org/ Red Hat Compiler Engineer aoliva@{redhat.com, gcc.gnu.org} Free Software Evangelist oliva@{lsd.ic.unicamp.br, gnu.org} - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
