Changes:
- don't worry about group
- tweak license wording
- use <blah>-firmware naming

Here's the updated firmware packaging proposal. Comments? Can we get this
approved - there are packages that meet the existing firmware guidelines
that are waiting on packging guidelines for approval.

-------------- next part --------------

1) The License tag for any firmware that disallows modification should
   be set to:
   
      "Redistributable, no modification permitted"

2) Firmware packages should be named <foo>-firmware, where <foo> is the
   driver or other hardware component that the firmware is for.
