I think you missed Paul's point. Documentation has been made available
to people in the FreeBSD project from Broadcom. If I wasn't so busy
trying to make things work from some other unfriendly companies I could
help with some more Broadcom issues. Recently, they just gave us a
driver. So "right" may apply to people that have time.
