However the reason I barked was because of you suggesting we remove all firmware or should just have left it in there. If we have a GPL violation then IMHO it has to be dealt with immediately, then we can look at the damages afterwards.
Lack of copyright does not imply "do whatever you want with it". The plain fact is that we don't know, and I'm trying to say "it likely is a problem, let's go find out".
I think the QLogic,ISP driver firmware(s) being distributed is just as serious an issue as the "obvious" qlogicfc_asm.c violation.
