"Last year when AMD announced their acquisition of ATI it led many to wonder how this would impact the quality of their Linux support and driver. Some had even speculated that AMD would be opening the code to at least a subset of their graphics drivers, and while this issue has come up again more recently, we will cover this particular topic in a different article. In this article we will be exposing what truly consists of the ATI/AMD driver development cycle and ultimately what they are really doing to improve their image in the Linux community."

I've taken a quick look through the article. They describe the current issues and the driver development process very well.
On the other hand I could not find much about the "open source" situation. They only tell that R200 series are now maintained only by X.Org open source drivers.
Have I missed something?
