Yeah, if the vendor doesn't have any problems in having it, well then 
there's no problem in having it there. Anyway i can't say whether that 
holds good for all vendors, but i can say the Twinhan guys won't have 
any issues in having the firmware blobs hosted. Usually there shouldn't 
be a problem at all... as most vendors are interested in getting their 
hardware to be working with another OS, than what they support officially.
