RE: [Qemu-devel] USB EHCI development nearing completion

[Mark B]

Thank you Fabrice and co.  LGPL or BSD should be fine - I don't have any
preference on the license.

I could not find the experimental 3D patch - it seems to have expired.  But
I uploaded a diff patch anyway to 4shared at this location:
http://www.4shared.com/file/7986451/d1222873/ehci.html

This is an early proof of concept with a good bit of tidying up yet to be
done.  It is not yet for public release either.  But of course comments and
other feedback are welcome.

Mark

Another point is that I won't accept a GPL license for such a device. 
LGPL or BSD would be better.

Regards,

Fabrice.
