"openpci" should have been open from the beginning. i fear now it may be too late to have any notable impact. aros has chosen against this standard, and gpl would probably be considered virulent, practically prohibiting commercial extensions and usage.

I've just changed the license to LGPL at Jason McMullen's suggestion.

There are serious problems with GPL libraries on Amiga-like OSs.


i thought openpci is of no use for aros. has that changed?
