Still keep feeling an itch to response to this. I am not interested in any proprietary driver binaries and I tried to work with you and contributed documentation, testing and lot of time to your em28xx project. I feel mislead and wasted my time trying to help you. Please don't response to this mail in this thread make a separate public thread if you want to discus it. I don't like thread highjacking. You are more then welcome to contribute code back in small patches for one change at a time that meets the Linux kernel licensing and coding guidelines. I sometimes got the feeling you are doing more good then harm working for Empiatech.
