Comment 10 for bug 1068299

Given the statement from Kim Naru below, Canonical Legal has approved this license so we may include this package into the multiverse archive when a proper maintainer on both sides is found.

Henry,James,

I have been told by the micro code team that :

·AMD owns the ucode.

·AMD employees write the ucode source code and tools.

·The ucode does not include any third party code.

·The ucode does not include any open source.

I will work with David on addressing whether there are any export
controls on the microcode. If they aren’t, as we discussed, then the
legal blurb is ok. If there are export controls then I will find out
which counties fall into Group D:1,E:1,E:2 and work with David in
getting legal to change the wording.

--thanks
