Website Which Rates HW Vendors On Their Openness?
A singular voice out of the multitude of Anonymous Cowards can be heard asking the following: "There are a many stories of hardware vendors preventing people using their hardware because they refuse to release specs. And a quite a few of companies who promise to release specs, but reneg on their word (ie: Alcatel USB SpeedTouch). In light of this I was wondering if there's a website that gives vendors ratings based on how open source friendly they are? A focus of good and bad publicity that might just make them think harder about being open source friendly." This would be a good resource for those of us who are looking to purchase Open Source friendly hardware (be it for Linux, BSD or a future free OS). How do you all feel about such a site and if one does not exist, who would be interested in starting one?
