I don't think I have seen this before but about this compromise.

As I see from one side are manufactuers who does not want to release specs
for their brand new sutff.

from other side is the open source community who wants to have sources to
the drivers.

My idea was that if manufatuer want to release specs that is ok.
If they does not want, they are permited to release binary-only
drivers for, say, 8 months and after that they would be required
to release sources.

I think in this way everyone would be happy.
