So, this is my last post in this thread as it has turned ridicolous by now.
I'll just summarize what has happened so far:
* abill_uk has hinted people to break the law and their contracts to publish code (which was the straw for me).
* Several arguments for why this cannot work has been made.
* There is no way that the full source code of Maemo5 can be published. Especially because of 3rd party IPR - think Flash, Skype, SGX drivers, etc. This makes the petition useless and it will not help anything.
* There has been (also in the past) statements that applications are not going to be open sourced.
momcilo, if you have specific questions about components and licensing, I'd like to take that in another thread. But please do your homework on how open source licensing works as I think you have misconceptions.
freemangordon, I'd like to help you with your fbdev problem, so feel free to poke me on #meego-arm IRC.

There's no way but the official route. Are you asking me to breach my contract and do criminal activities, opening myself to civil suit for damages and criminal prosecution?
Are you stupid?

haha do you even have to ask - you put up the petition after all
I am surprised you are still arguing with this "software engineer" who has been through it all.
The "official route" should have been Maemo JOINING with MeeGo and not a conflict situation that is going on now.

I would give him the benefit of the doubt as english is a second language to most ppl - and plenty of non english speakers can code just fine
His chain of logic is just.... well... i am speechless. I think I will have to go to urban dictionary to find some new adjectives.
Seriously - he claims to have been through IP battles in court over reverse engineering issues. With his logic I think he got bulldozed by a lawyer in open court.
Sorry, asking someone else to break the law on an open forum for his sake when he is constantly putting down that person....
hahahhahahha
