How to do Embedded Linux [not] right
TODO (chip maker)
What should the chip vendors do?
Externally
Don't mistake FOSS as just a technology. It is a R&D philosophy!
Provide public reference manuals with no NDA
If you have to resort to NDA, make sure they are FOSS friendly
Ensure you don't license IP cores that conflict with FOSS
Internally
Draft a proper in-house FOSS strategy with clear goals
Don't expect your product mangers or engineers to know everything about FOSS without proper training
Hire people with strong community background into your R&D and management to facilitate the know-how transfer
