    If AMD wanted to get real serious real fast about rapidly improving drivers, could releasing Radeon driver source code under AGPLv3 help get mass development and fixes for drivers, while at the same time due to the license make the code untouchable for nVidia?

      Both RadV and RadeonSI (both part of Mesa) are better than their Radeon driver these days. They should just abandon that unnecessary kludge and fully focus on the open-source drivers.
