Ok Ron, We all recognise your efforts and don't deny that the question of the binary blobs" is a very complex and "politicaly hot" one.. But (and I speak here from a STRICTLY personal point of view) it is the fashion you chose to lecture Paul than I found not very nice.. I sense a trace of elitism in your atitude (like you "GODs" have the exclusive right to acces some secrets and we "mere mortals" have even no right to think about these "things"..) I for one cannot swallow that!.. Just my 2 (euro-cents) Florentin

It's also not very nice, given the amount of effort that we have made over the years to get the blobs opened up, for Paul to claim that we "don't understand how much power we have." Unless you've been involved in these discussions, you can't possibly understand how difficult they are. ron -- coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
