In an interesting move, Allwinner Technology is joining the Linux Foundation.
Allwinner Technology is the Chinese company producing a range of low-end SoCs for Android tablets and other devices. Allwinner hardware is popular with many in the open-source community due to their SoCs appearing in lower-cost hardware and the thriving Linux-SunXi community. Unfortunately, Allwinner as a company is still “learning” to be open-source friendly and to not violate the GPL and other licenses.
