+How to do Embedded Linux [not] right
+What does the vendor get
+
+
+no innovation
+because they try to hide their code (gpl-violations.org)
+because their R&D environment is non-standard
+weird cross-toolchains that nobody has seen before
+weird filesystems with custom patches that nobody knows
+because they add proprietary components to lock developers from adding features
+e.g. the entire web-based UI for embedded networking gear
+binary-only kernel modules that force people to use old kernels with no interesting new features
+because it is, overall, way too hard to develop on/for their platform
+because they don't disclose serial console and/or JTAG access
