Yes, but if the lawyers tell Intel that it's employees cannot contribute to the Kernel *as a work requirement* anymore, what does that do to the Kernel?
So I'm waiting for someone at a major corporation that does substantial open source development to file a hostile work environment suit against their company if they are required to do kernel submissions.
