Hello Rients,

we have been progressing really well and are looking into concentrating
on a stable release to be included into the Linux Stock Kernel. In order
to do so we really need bloboid.h's license changed to a Free License one.
Following the tradition that was used for the LDDK, this would be GPL.

It seems our list has been with corporate support for the LDDK too. Since
we don't haven't had NDA clearance to get the RM034 we are falling short
in assisting users/developers. I'm sure there are also more OIDs which we
can probably make good use of. Being this the case, would it be possible
for our deverloper circle to get NDA clearance for the RM034? We
currently consist of three main developers. Getting clearance to be
allowed to receive the latest firmware and to redistribute it would also
be great.

A simple reply would be more than appreciated,

Regards, and Happy Holidays,

	Luis
