| $XFree86: $ |
After we already finalized XFree86-3.3.3 NVIDIA forced The XFree86 Project |
| |
to replace the sources we had with sources that were partly run through the |
| |
C preprocessor in order to remove some of the names that NVIDIA thought |
| |
might give away IP from NVIDIA. This resulted in unreadable and unmaintainable |
| |
code. |
| |
|
| |
The XFree86 Project is strongly opposed to such obfuscated code. We do not |
| |
regard this as free software according to our standards. Due to the extremely |
| |
late date of this decision from NVIDIA we decided to include the code as |
| |
offered by NVIDIA. We are considering to remove support for the later NVIDIA |
| |
chips in a future release, though. |
