The 8driver part is partially based on the Linux FinePix driver by Frank 9Zago (http://www.zago.net/v4l2/finepix/ - 10http://sourceforge.net/projects/fpix/), that is where the Linux JPEG 11code came from and also where I got the device IDs. If the JPEG part 12is removed I don't think there should be enough left there to break 13the GPL, as the rest of the code is probably more "inspired by" than 14"copied from" the Linux driver. At least I remember having to monitor 15the USB traffic under Windows to get the setup commands right, and I 16also think there were some articles on writing a BeOS webcam driver 17and on using the USBKit that I used as references. 18 19I hope that made it a bit more clear! 20As for what I did, I'm more than happy for it to be under MIT licence. 21 22
