Actually, the primary attraction to an IHV is the build-for-build
correspondence to ON, which allows the use of consolidation private
interfaces like GLDv3. Otherwise, we could just offer drivers from
our own download site.
That's true, but I wonder how viable it is to put a driver into such a
consolidation. If, and when, they change GLDv3 in a completely
incompatible way, again, who will fix all the GLDv3 drivers?
