Hi.

Unfortunately, i can't give thanks and say good job.

What rests is the never ending repeating the same thing, because as you
already know, this is using the proprietary-binary-blobs with the
random-license-issues that "everybody" is too "professional" to care.

Whatever is thought of me, as being an extremist or fanatic or with an
agenda against evil-proprietary-binary-blobs doesn't change anything.
I am well aware, that there are business and users that are pragmatic
and just search for something that works(tm), and give none preference
about if close-source or if open-source.

And i respect their decision.


What i can't do, and which i will not keep my mouth shut about, is.
When the effort for a 100% libre and open-source driver and software is
being ignored, and instead there is a preference for the
proprietary-binary-blobs with the random-license-issues.

And i repeat again, random-license-issues that stop the contribution of
people that wishes to not be an *excuse* to the continuous disregard of
license-issues which in certain cases are to the point of being
clear GPL-violations, that is very well know to exist in this
embedded-software-development world.

In this 4+ years of linux-sunxi.org community existence, didn't nobody
thought why this CedarX library isn't integrated in a easy form to use?

The answer is, because of license-issues.

Why the popular media player called XBMC/Kodi doesn't support and
even why are their developers are actively "boycotting" allwinner
devices?

The answer is, because of license-issues.


But this is this sunxi community.
A community which their "users" prefer to work in the
proprietary-binary-blobs-with-random-license-issues, than to support or
help or join the effort for the creation of a
mainlineable-100%-libre-open-source-driver-and-software

What can i do?
Please tell me that you don't expect from me to be the sucker that has
to do all this work "alone", when at the same time, the ones that will
the most benefit are doing nothing to help.
And to make clear, this is not a begging for money, i personally would
be very happy do this at zero cost for a community that cares about
software and about the respect of the licenses used.

To terminate, if there is anyone reading this that wishes to be part of
this community, by doing what they can to help or contribute in this
effort. We are at #cedrus in freenode, everybody is welcomed to join us.
