"After years of encouragement from the OpenBSD community for others to use Reyk Floeter's free atheros wireless driver, it seems that the Linux world is finally listening. Unfortunately, they seem to think that they can strip the BSD license right out of it." Update: The issue has been fixed, but sadly, lkml.org is down, so I cannot give any links just yet.

can't we give the parties involved some minimal amount of time to sort this out *before* posting this flamebait?
It would also be nice if you didn't make it sound like your title, 'Linux Developers Steal OpenBSD Code for Wireless Driver', is a quote from the original when it isn't. The original headline is simply 'Linux Driver Copyright Violation', nothing about stealing.
