Thanks for pointing that out. ?They are welcome to use whatever
business/IP model they wish, but this one bothers me enough that I would
avoid the device.
That section of the FAQ is not completely relevant in this
case. It refers to producing IPFs. If you want to write sector images,
then there is of course no real need to create IPFs anyway in this
case I guess.
Our IPF creation software is a commercial product, and helps fund our
preservation activity. Now that the IPF library has been open source,
there isn't anything stopping somebody creating something similar of
course, so that FAQ is out of date too.
