I cannot remember a GR which says exactly this. Neither a GR which would
clarify our definition of "firmware". And the one I follow is that it is
more hardware than a software component.

I guess you mean that "Editorial changes" farce where the majority of
the developers just did not participiate and still feel beeing cheated
by its creators. So please stop creating your own facts from obfuscated
material.

Further, this thread is about an emulation layer. The actuall purpose is
not for discussion - and if you honestly follow the attitude you
presented here, please file RC bugs against all kernel packages
immediately. Their packagers allow people to run non-free software, we
need to strike against this evil, now!
