I think the concern is really the statement that says that the
firmware "may not be reproduced, used, sold or transferred to any
third party without Keyspan's prior written consent".  At face value
that would appear to answer your question in the negative.

Now it's clear that what that appears to say is not actually what
Keyspan meant, since they released the firmware to Hugh Blemings
specifically so it could be included (in binary form) in the kernel
sources.  Maybe that's just the copyright notice from their firmware
source code or something.  In any case, it needs to be cleared up.

Paul.
