I'm not convinced this is any different. If you accept the 3D changes you step into a dangerous world of estoppel and since it has many rightsholders also the wonderful world of contributory infringement. It really really needs lawyers to look into it. Now the other way to do it that might be more productive and simpler would be to rip all the 3D crap out of that driver and just include the minimum needed 2D bits for the open source X driver. Makes the code smaller and cleaner, avoids an legal questions and lets people get on with real work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
