That's another reason why we don't want this code to be all over the place. If you could generalize the code sufficiently, it could be an inline function in pci.h or some other GPL licensed header. If we need to add GPL code to ath5k, it could go to a separate file. But if that separation becomes inconvenient, we could drop BSD compatibility from ath5k. I don't see any benefit from dual licensing, unless some existing ath5k contributors are BSD developers who would stop working on the code in case of relicensing, but I don't think it's the case. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
