Thanks. Why i asked about this, i had been working on the same asked them whether we can use the same code in our drivers. This was what i got, the answer from AFA "As I said, we can "NOT" publish this driver code, please keep it for your own use only." Later on seeing the same i asked them on the status on publishing the same. This was what i was told: "Oh, it will be a disaster.... It's not legal to publish the code..." If you can find out, from whom they got the permission to publish it would be great.
