As reported in the latest free edition of LWN the Bluetooth Qualification Administrator has demanded that the Linux BlueZ project take down the Bluetooth hardware compatibility list for Linux, claiming that 'As neither of these products have been qualified using Linux it is illegal to make them available for public use'. This was apparently done at the request of a registered member of the Bluetooth SIG.

Isn't the Standard IEEE 802.15 Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) technology based on Bluetooth? (Bluetooth v1.1 I believe)
How is the Bluetooth Standard Interests Group (SIG) and the IEEE Closed Standards body related?
After all, other Wireless Technologies like the IEEE 802.11 suite are being implemented in Linux and I have heard no problems thereof.
