The "free" above was main

Interestingly, Fedora has a new policy that kernel module packages

Very interesting. I'd say we should atleast consider it due to various

My concern is modules in the upstream kernel which have firmware

the list and check, which of these have been merged into Linux mainline
by now (e.g. several of the wifi drivers have) and report the missing
ones to Greg Kroah-H's driver project:
