They do seem to be maintaining their own tree, but the tarball (which is
within a zip) containing the driver code has a GPL COPYING file. There
may be some closed source drivers for other products in their range
somewhere in there, and if there is a version/copy of the Conexant
drivers in there perhaps it's modified to support their remote or
supplied just for completeness.
