Isn't the whole point of dual BSD/GPL that it makes it possible to make
the driver BSD only/GPL only later on? Pure BSD code (w/o advertising
clause) can have additional restrictions (GPL or some proprietary
licensing terms) added later on by a vendor, so why can't BSD/GPL code
be relicensed the same way?
If it's polite to relicense the code is a completely different
question. On the other hand, if Matthew makes major changes and wants
those to become GPL, that's up to him.

Off topic: I've been told that some Irish radio station has had a
competition where you were supposed to send in photos of people holding
an egg. Can somebody tell me what radio station is that and where I can
find the pictures?
