   TIL: @tuxedocomputers released #Linux #kernel drivers for their machines under the #GPLv3, which makes it impossible for competitors and distros to ship them pre-compiled, as that license is incompatible with the #LinuxKernel's #GPLv2 only license.

   They did this purposely, allegedly to "keep control of the upstream pacing" – and want to re-license the code while upstreaming.
