    No I do not. Read the post. I suggested placing the documentation on
    kernel.org, on your site, or on bitmover.com where it belongs. This
    documentation for a proprietary software product does not belong in the
    Linux kernel tree itself. It is nothing less than an advertisement.
    Was it paid for?

    (And there you may have an argument that would satisfy me. However, it
    is not me I'm worried about. It is the other kernel developers who are
    silently seething at this situation. Yes they are, use your ears.)
