The patches under discussion here (gentoo kernel patches) are a different |
| 9 |
issue - most of these are not written by us, but they are taken from the |
| 10 |
prerelease kernels upstream. Thats why we had to take them out of our CVS, |
| 11 |
theres no way we could have claimed ownership or copyright on them, which was |
| 12 |
in conflict with the copyright assignment agreement. |
