     83 * Firmware allows distribution with Haiku. I recommend the way FreeBSD is doing it:
     84   * The FreeBSD repository contains the uuencoded version of the firmware files combined with the License. [http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/release/8.0.0/sys/contrib/dev/mwl/mw88W8363.fw.uu?revision=199625&view=markup mw88w8363], [http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/release/8.0.0/sys/contrib/dev/mwl/mwlboot.fw.uu?revision=199625&view=markup mwlboot]
     85   * The FreeBSD Distribution contains then the (uudecoded) binary firmware and puts the license in the appropriate license directory.
     86 * The Haiku way could look like this:
     87   * Haiku's repository contains the uuencoded firmware files mw88W8363fw.uu and mwlboot.uu (both prefixed with the [http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/release/8.0.0/sys/contrib/dev/mwl/LICENSE?view=markup license]) in data/system/data/firmware/marvell88w8363/
     88   * Haiku's repository contains the license file itself in data/system/data/firmware/marvell88w8363, too.
     89   * Haiku images contain the uudecoded firmware files mw88W8363fw and mwlboot in /system/data/firmware/marvell88w8363/
     90   * Haiku images contain the license file in the appropriate license announcing locations
