I have bee following the neopwn-debacle closely albeit from the side line. Luckiliy I ran into the thread on that project late enough not to have donated but I would love to have packet injection included. Another Nokia fail, I guess...
That being said, I must admit that my initial reaction was quite cynical when I read this thread, yesterday. Yes, I understand you need the money and yes I understand the frustration with Neopwn, but I do have some problems with your argumentation towards the forced donation. After all, your problem with Neopwn is between you and Neopwn. And your relation with your new userbase has nothing to do with Neopwn, really. So to combine these two things is not a reasonable line of thought, I believe. But thatīs not the point I wanted to share.
So, I will not download your driver (or get it from someone else), as I am "in between jobs" and there for not able to donate, apart from the principal issue I have, as mentioned above. But I do respect your efforts. Normally I have no moral problems taking what I need for free (within certain limits), but this time I will wait to use PI untill this driver becomes available in the free domain.
Thanks for your efforts.
