Newbie: archives and legal issues

[Kyle Harris]

Hi,

Is there a searchable mail archive?

I'm sure this question has probably been beat to death. So, if there is
someplace I can look for discussion, please let me know. Is it legal to
use the FTL and/or NFTL on custom hardware (i.e., not M-System devices)?

Thanks, Kyle.

Nope, although the archives are downloadable in mbox format from 
ftp.infradead.org:/pub/mtd/archives

grep is your friend :)

Unless you live in the Free World or have a separate patent licensing 
agreement with M-Systems, FTL may only be used on PCMCIA devices, and NFTL 
only on M-Systems' own hardware.

But if you have custom hardware, why wouldn't you be using JFFS?
