Otherwise we're asking for rights to something that may not exist and possibly asking Freescale to actually go searching for the code. The less we ask for the better our chances.
We need to ask Freescale to go searching for the code. (They probably wouldn't have to search very far -- it was all still on Sigmatel's SVN server when Sigmatel closed the Cambridge office at the end of 2007, so presumably it was also still there when Freescale bought Sigmatel a few months later.) Even suggesting that the code might exist anywhere else would damage our case IMO -- and not merely because it doesn't!

I agree on this one, the proper way to do this is to ask them first and let them look for the source..
it might be that they come back nd say" we can give you the rights, but we cant find the source" then a reply could be "is it ok if we search for the source and get back to you if we locate it"
just a thought
