It will be available when we have something which is worth being
reviewed in public. As there is currently no possibility to get any
documentation about the cores without NDAs, an open *driver* is IMHO not
possible, so we'll have to rely on the proprietary drivers Freescale
deliver. Bad, but I don't see another chance by now.
