Ah, but we don't need the entire driver... just the pieces that interface w/ the
kernel... let the "super secret" stuff stay OCO... this just requires the design
of the driver such that the secrets are OCO and the parts that depend upon
kernel structures are sourced... its not rocket science... just a bit of
thinking about meeting both the customer's and the legal's needs to be met in a
flexible manner is all rather than just thinking "inside the box" and ending up
with a design that only meets the needs of the "we can't do that" folks!

Peace. -njg
