Um, just to let you know, the LinuxDC project is alive and well at
linuxdc.org.  As I write this I'm finishing up ethernet support (I'm
playing with NFS now) and FB drivers are already there.  Maple will
probably be added sometime next week.

All code that I write (or anyone else in linuxdc) is covered under the 
GPL and "assigned" to the LinuxDC project.  What type of "legal"
procedures are you talking about?  Please, spare me the tired, 
"Sega won't sanction it", this is built from entirely free info and 
tools, which IMHO has nothing to do with Sega :)

Feel free to checkout CVS and have a look, or join our mailing lists.  I'd
be interested in hearing your and Yaegashi's ideas on driver development.
