Re: [libusb] QNX support

[Matthew G. <ma...@gi...>]

I don't see what the ongoing issue is. The tester can just create a 
Foundry27/myQNX account, and login to download the BSP for the device 
under test (DUT) that is shipped out to them for testing libusb. The 
6.6.0 SDP and other tools require licenses, but the BSP (ie: bootloader, 
OS image, etc), doesn't. Even if the BSP has distribution constraints, 
there's nothing stopping any random person on the Internet from making a 
free account and downloading the BSP.

This of course, will be tedious for the tester, as he/she won't be able 
to rebuild anything provided to them.
