Petition for Broadcom Drivers

Hello everyone, as you all know there are problems with porting custom ROMs like CM7 into our Galaxy Y because developers lack the drivers source code. Because of that we can't experience the full power of these ROMs. It has come down to signing a petition, started by arbylaw from xda-developers. You can go to the petition page by clicking <a href="http://www.change.org/petitions/broadcom-release-driver-source-gpu-kernel-etc-for-samsung-galaxyyoung-gt-s5360">HERE</a>. Please show your support to Broadcom about this matter and hopefully in the near future we will get what we are looking for. For updates such as replies from Broadcom employees and such on this you can check out the official xda thread: <a href="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869565">http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869565</a> 
 
Please share this petition link with your friends who also strive to have a working CyanogenMod on their Galaxy Young. 
 
UPDATE: 
The drivers have been released, read: <a href="http://www.galaxyyarchive.info/2013/01/broadcom-releases-egl-drivers-for.html">http://www.galaxyyarchive.info/2013/01/broadcom-releases-egl-drivers-for.html</a>
