Their next step is putting CoCs for the users right in the software license itself. If the user violates the CoC (even when not using the software), they have violated the license terms and are no longer permitted to use the software. This is in fact exactly what Lerna very recently tried to do, and the only reason the license was reverted was because there was a huge backlash. Just like everything these fucks do, they test the waters to see what they can get away with, and if they don't succeed the first time they just keep trying over and over and over again until they wear down their enemy and get what they want.

Vulkan is just a protocol, like OpenGL. The part that is actively developed as new hardware comes out are the GPU drivers which implement Vulkan.

You can kind-of secure a DMA device like a GPU if you pass it up to a VM and lock it down via the IOMMU. Sure it can fuck with whatever is in the VM but you just don't put anything you need secure inside the VM.

The OpenGL thing isn't a result of AMD and Nvidia not releasing documentation because AMD does, the issue is that GPUs change frequently (the entire ISA can change between two generations) and there is no certification system for Linux drivers like there is for Windows. Combined with the fact that writing drivers for Linux is harder than Windows and that there is a smaller market for Linux the manufacturers just give less of a shit which leads to the OpenGL shit.

Good point. Still that does not warrant that their software is useless. Assuming hardware development won't undergone some sort of revolution, we can still fork or at least archive the unpozzed software, study how it works and implement it in new software developments.

Same stuff that I stated for the Linux kernel.
The simplest (not easily implemented) scenario is that there is a fork just before the coc activation, all the devs switch to it, then all distros switch to that. End of the problem.
The next best thing would be applying the patches after the coc while a small crew continue working on the fork I guess.

The only smart choice at this point is to let these babbys have whatever "code of conduct" they want and just use the software. If required, you may even fork it and add whatever you need for your particular use case; FOSS only requires that you publish your changes, not that you go dance and praise Mao and say pretty pretty please in the original project issue tracker, or that you need to format a PR to upstream's liking.
For big, corporate backed projects, I don't think that things will change much. People are being paid to spend several hours of their days focused 100% on the project, but for smaller projects I'm not so sure.
>>979366
There are at least two possible negative outcomes of this:
a) Vulkan becomes shit, or not good as it could be due to spooking good contributors and attracting bad "contributors" because of politics.
b) Vulkan gets compromised and backdoored.
The latter is something I see as feasible for Linux, but the former is more likely for Vulkan. Not like any outsider would know though, due to the highly secretive application of the conduct rules, which is by design.
If SHTF eventually, a capable individual or group may decide to fork, and only selectively merge commits from upstream: that's the only saving grace about all of this.
>>982488
It was reverted because of the backlash. Other maintainers were a-OK with it... until people pointed to the change as insanity, laughed at it, and then pointed the hypocrisy of having a CoC but not applying it to someone who was openly harassing people while bragging that he was member of Lerna and other big webshit projects.
You can bet that if that didn't happen, then we would now have CoC for the users of the software, selectively applied as always of course.

>If SHTF eventually, a capable individual or group may decide to fork, and only selectively merge commits from upstream: that's the only saving grace about all of this.
One issue I see with this outcome is that a fork of Vulkan may not read widespread usage, especially if it starts to deviate heavily from the official one. We'd eventually run into compatibility issues and possibly have lots of infighting over what features should be merged from upstream.

The linux devs can rescind their license grant. Why don't they if they don't like the CoC. They did NOT give their code away. They merely licensed it to people for nothing. Licenses can be rescinded. The License text itself doesn't even disclaim the possibility of rescission. All it says is that those who are down stream of a violator won't have their license automatically revoked if the violator's is.
(No this was NOT "debunked", it's a complete lie to say that the owner of the copyright cannot rescind his freely licensed (no consideration paid) property: yes the free software people ARE LYING - but EVERYONE now believes their lie even though their debunking was immediately debunked itself. - Since none of you woman worshiping anti-marry-little-girls faggots are lawyers you believe whatever you're told by "SFConservancy")
