I don't think copyright has anything to do with it. Drivers can just as wel be GPL'ed and assigned to the FSF as any other source code. The separation is still useful: A driver framework can be useful for more than one project. It doesn't need to be tied to the Hurd. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
