Not really. The petition signers are happy with just "Linux drivers"
(Linux/intel drivers, that is).
I would have signed for a petition asking for releasing specs so that
drivers for any OS can be done; but I didn't sign because I won't be
satisfied with just closed source binary-only drivers for only a single
OS on a single platform (what is the difference with Windows binary only
drivers ?)
