AC means "authenticated code", right? How readily can these be redistributed? The license says: "... you may make a reasonable number of copies of the Software for internal use only, subject to these conditions: 1. You may not copy, modify, rent, sell, distribute, externally display, externally perform or transfer any part of the Software except as provided in this Agreement, and you agree to prevent unauthorized copying of the Software. " which seems to limit the ability of distributions to include the modules, in case they're redistributed. - James -- James Morris <jmorris@...ei.org> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
