Therefore the source +code can be distributed in unmodified or modified form consistent with +the terms of the license. + +The Linux driver architecture was based on two modules, the MSF (Module +specific functions) and the HCF (Hardware Control Functions). Included +in the HCF is run-time firmware (binary format) which is downloaded into +the RAM of the Hermes 1/2/2.5 WMAC. + +This hex coded firmware is not based on any open source software and +hence it is not subject to any Open Source License. The firmware was +developed by Agere and runs on the DISC processor embedded within the +Hermes 1/2/2.5 Wireless MAC devices. + +Hope this helps. + +Sincerely, + +Viren Pathare +Intellectual Property Licensing Manager +Agere +--- diff --git a/WHENCE b/WHENCE index 318331a..2c830a8 100644 --- a/WHENCE +++ b/WHENCE @@ -352,3 +352,12 @@ File: ql2500_fw.bin -- 4.04.04 Licence: Redistributable.
