Yep, shame on AMD for open-sourcing gpu documentation, and making it possible to port drivers to other platforms such as BSD. In 2 years time the AMD haters will be nowhere to be seen.

How nice of them to allow you to go through the work to port their driver to BSD. Whereas nvidia only has official BSD support out of the box.
The only shame AMD should have right now is not reviewing/releasing the UVD1 code. The fglrx/Catalyst blob is for gamerz with the latest cards. AMD doesn't need to support older products with it if they do things right on the open source side.

It is ironic that you mark me as AMD hater when I have ALWAYS used AMD and ATI products all my life.
I have a Radeon 4850 which is more than enough for my casual gaming needs. The open source drivers do not help in gaming.

And I use nvidia in my systems. Notice that I wrote 'in two years' by that time hopefully the drivers will be in better shape and cover 80% of use cases.
