target gtm900 renamed to gtm900mgc2 This change reflects the fact that the build target in question supports MGC2GSMT hardware only, and will NOT work on other hw that confusing bears the same end user name of GTM900, neither the LoCosto-based GTM900-C nor the Calypso-based MG01GSMT that has a different and incompatible RFFE. If we ever get our hands on a piece of MG01GSMT hw and add support for it, that other target will be named gtm900mg01.

601 3e5689c0ca4e LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 229 diff changeset	26 In the case of those code components which originate from TI, we did not get
613 6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	27 them from TI per se, instead we have found them freely on the Internet. I,
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	28 Mother Mychaela, have made multiple attempts to reach out to TI, informing them
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	29 about the existence of our FreeCalypso family of projects and what I am doing
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	30 with their old abandoned software IP. I was not able to get any positive
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	31 response from them in the form of support or help with obtaining those pieces
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	32 of historical code and documentation which are still missing, but they have not
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	33 taken any adverse action against us either; specifically, they never said
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	34 explicitly that they object to what I am doing (producing and freely
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	35 distributing my own Derived Works based on their abandonware IP), and they
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	36 never asked me to stop doing so.
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	37
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	38 Based on the fact that TI have chosen to not take any action against our family
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	39 of projects despite being fully informed and having been given multiple
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	40 opportunities to do so over the course of many years, we hereby make the
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	41 reasonable conclusion that TI do not object to us using their fully abandoned
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	42 and discontinued IP as if it were Free Software, and I, Mother Mychaela, shall
6f0874b00973 LICENSE: current status Mychaela Falconia <falcon@freecalypso.org> parents: 601 diff changeset	43 continue doing the same for as long as I am alive and physically able.
