Stefan, I forgot to mention that this build I am making will be distributed in a commercial product. Will this patch fulfill my company's GPL obligations?

I see. You should have talked to me before starting. I have up to date patches too, see https://github.com/stefanct/flashrom/tree/layout Ideally you would apply my patches to the current flashrom (0.9.6.1 is quite old) and send the difference between that and your changes on top of it. If there are bits that I think are useful I can integrate them to my patches or apply yours on top of them... If updating to the latest source before applying the changes or separating your changes from mine is too much work for you then just sending the differences between your current state and 0.9.6.1 is ok too. I'll figure something out :) > So should I just send the patch to this email address once it is signed or > does it get submitted elsewhere? Yes. You create the patch file, add it inline (or as attachment), add the signed-off-by line and send it to the mailing list. Patchwork extracts any patches sent here automatically and makes them available at http://patchwork.coreboot.org/project/flashrom/list/ -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] http://www.flashrom.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
