And predicting the future is easy of course. Lots of people come to Fedora and to Linux not having planning for some years in advance to do so. Claiming people should have planned that far in advance is not at all helpful and doesn't reflect reality. Where there are vendors who are not being helpful there isn't that much that can be done about it - especially for obscure hardware. Where stuff gets done despite the vendor it's normally because it is either popular or simple so enough people exist who care about doing it. Some hardware is often quite easy to decode from traces - USB especially, but many things like wireless cards are not, and 3D video cards even less so. Printers, plotters and scanners vary - some can be quite simple. The Craft Robo is an example of the simple end (indeed the "driver" is written in python), while Nouveau and the broadcom wireless are the other extreme. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
