I thought that would be so.  Still, we are very glad to have it.
From this we can help our project.

Pierre, I'm really very sorry to hear that.

Since it's inevitable that your kernel code would have to
be released under the GPL, can I encourage you to see if it's
possible for Lineo to release the code-so-far under the GPL?

Suits.  It's always the suits.  :-|

You've made a significant investment in learning this stuff,
why throw your knowledge away now?  Most of us do this for
fun and outside our companies.  There's nothing to stop you
from doing the same, and heaven knows, our project could
really benefit from having you.  Is there nothing we can do?

Yes quite.  You can still be a part of it.

Regards,

Mitch.
