Does intel plan on releasing the firmware for the Arc Pro GPU such that it is completely auditable and open source, in addition to the open source driver. This differentiator could be a selling point for the card series. Additionally, intel may receive support from the open source community on tying the features together for the card. I am interested primarily in the Linux software drivers and firmware.
Thanks for answering.

"Arc Pro Drivers/software are not open source."
Both AMD and Nvidia have released open source kernel drivers for their platform. Can you please explain why Intel has chosen not to do this.
Thanks.
