 it's not "divisions", it's very simple: the EOMA68 Certification Mark
requires that people Certify the products that they intend to
manufacture and sell, for safety reasons.  i am not just blithely
going to let people randomly create hardware, slap an EOMA68 logo on
it and then be sued or imprisoned because somebody was killed in a
lithium battery fire.

 this is *really serious*, and must take absolute precedence over
*any* kind of "freedoms" offered by libre hardware and libre software
licenses.
