Resubmitted to clarify the original author of the quoted text ...
I also already got a response stating that the driver was obtained from a
manufacturer's open FTP site, but is apparently not there now. Also, there
is no documentation that came with it to either document its use or its
origin. There was a previous response from someone else that indicated
that the file was also available on another Web site, but there was no
documentation there either. This kind of leaves it in limbo as to its
legal use. Anyone who works under tight licensing restrictions should
probably keep this in mind.

I got this file from your Web site. Do you have any documentation for it
or do you know where it originally came from? I have to worry about
licensing issues and such.
