Linux support concerns
#38
I think tllim said it all.
Allwinner doesn't believe it's their job t 'deal' with the opensource community.
Not that it is their obligation or anything, but it seems they want to give us some sort of hope.
I would like a very clear declaration of their intentions on the following:
- OpenSource drivers
- OpenSource community cooperation
- Providing decent documentation about the hardware CPU and GPU
- Closed source support for Linux. Mainlining it or not?

And that's all.
Allwinner doesn't owe anything it hasn't promised. But vague indications is something we can not tolerate.
I think that clear answers on these topics would be a great step for this discussion and for helping those undecided if they will back this project or not.
