This works pretty well based on a few tests here but as this is a heavily derived work of a GPLv2 script (IANAL) I'm pretty sure we need to respect the author of the original works copyright and license. In concrete terms I expect we need to: * use the original license header WITH the original Intel 2010 copyright * add Wind River's copyright to the new code * mention and link to the original work in a comment in the script With those changes I expect we can merge this and iterate on it as people use it.
