It's not a design issue - it's a legal issue at this point, and one that
I'm not qualified to come up with a good answer for. The biggest
technical issue I think for open sourcing the VMI, is that it is not
part of the kernel, but stand alone firmware with a rather bizarre build
environment, so the code alone is not sufficient to allow it to be open
sourced, but this is not a hard problem to solve.
