As I'm following Factory myself closely (have it running on 2 systems.. compared to 11.1 only one 1) I was thinking of having the KMPs too on the server. (Greg, please don't shoot!)
Remember, you can not redistribute these packages, so you better not make them public for anyone else to get :)
What you do on your own systems is up to you.
So you're going to sue Dominique if he does?
If he redistributes the prebuilt nvidia driver, I will take the same action that I have taken against other individuals and companies that distribute such a thing in the past.
Knowingly ignoring someone who violates your copyright doesn't look good if you wish to do future enforcement of your copyright. Or so says my lawyers...
You could grant this one individual the License to use your personal fraction of the overall kernel copyright in liaison with the ATI and nvidia driver. As the copyright owner you are allowed to do such a dual License. Supposed the primary objective was to make openSUSE users happy and make openSUSE the insanely easy solution to "I want to use Linux on this machine". And solve the license problem when we have 20, 30, 40 % desktop and workstation market share, growing. Which the current tactics is extremely effectively blocking. btw, how's the status sueing ubuntu/canonical on their villainous copyright infringements with their fglrx binary packages? They are serving their users first, and then, with the help of a large number of users, they'll change rules to the better of the GPL.
