Package: firmware-linux-nonfree
Version: 0.27
Severity: wishlist
The edgeport/1 firmware, specifically edgeport/down3.bin, is included
in the 2.6.32 kernel.org tree but nowhere in Debian according to apt
and Contents-amd64.gz. This is needed for USB-to-serial converters.

Closing this bug as the licence for this firmware was never resolved.
If you or anyone else are able to sort that out, you should submit the
firmware to linux-firmware.git first as that is now the upstream project
for firmware-nonfree.

Always try to do things in chronological order;
it's less confusing that way.
