Re: [tboot-devel] SINIT module license

[Shane W. <sha...@in...>]

The new license for SINIT allows to _redistribute_ in binary form 
without modification.

To make SINIT to be part of firmware, I think it will meet the upgrade 
problem. The upgrade of firmware is rare and not so easy for users.

Thanks.
