The kernel source for imx508 will be made public soon.

Please read:

Based on the wish list, we have implemented some features and fixed some bugs.
features:
* click state icon at status bar to show sketch/annotation menu
* hide/show annotations (including sketches)
* merge highlight together with sketches into a new pdf.

Probably will be available within today for your testing.

The firmware info's good news

However, I cannot believe that the git repository reflects their work environment (or the software versions used in the firmware images for that matter).
I don't assume that they continuously work with a broken environment and broken packages.

But aside from legal issues (GPL entitles users to receive the source of the software versions they use - not some software source it is merely based upon),
the community can only help by sending in patches if
- they have current sources to fix current bugs/produce feature patches applying to Onyx sources
- know where/how to submit the patches.

I'd therefore strongly encourage updates of the git repositories.

That being said, I appreciate the firmware update and can't await trying it :P

Cheers to Booxtor.

P.S.: Was the 'based on the wishlist' in Onyx's email to you? (i.e., are they reading the wishlist? )
