Making them open to contributions was the first step, but ok I won't engage in this petty tribalism.

The topic was about nvidia's closed source drives.

Valve couldn't do the same for pascal GPUs. Nobody but nvidia has the reclocking firmware, so even the reverse engineered nouveau NVK drivers are stuck at boot clock speeds.
