I was reading a thread the other day concerning MiSter. Evidently, the buildroot hasn't been relinquished to the public. But, shouldn't that be dispersed openly, too? The cores have to be, of course. But why not the buildroot? Forgive my ignorance, just trying to understand.

CentOS releases lagged RHEL releases because in each case the CentOS team had to create a working buildroot for the RHEL source, they didn’t get that from RedHat. Their fork had to be binary compat, so it wasn’t easy. For mister you’re talking about much less work.
"For mister you’re talking about much less work" doesn't matter how much work it is. It is the principle of it all.https://twitter.com/arcade_projects/status/1373122264833667075 …

*shrug* It’s open source, I’m sorry you can’t figure it out on your own. The mister folks aren’t obligated to help turn their FPGA system into a print server. Seems reasonable given their goals. And using that linux as a starting point is needlessly uphill anyway.

"The mister folks aren’t obligated" in context... yes, yes they are. I can completely figure it out on my own, but you miss the entire point of GPL, and your obligation under it.
