It is in our customers interest to get software without
unexpected (e.g. hidden) license issues from us.
It doesn't matter how much of the driver is free software.
One single tiny required non-free part makes it non-free.
Here in particular epl_compress.c is of interest.
If epl_compress.c is free software it is o.k.
otherwise we do carefully check all license issues.
Finally our license experts decide.

"We will never risk causing license problems only to have
some kind of support for such problematic hardware."
