Understood. I will see what I can do. I already had them contact Takashi, but I will ask if they're willing to give a sign-off. If they're having trouble, is it okay to have them contact you Josh?

linux-firmware: Add new firmware for Creative CA0132 HD-Audio Codec (2018-10-09 14:41:12 -0400)
These are additional firmware files for CA0132 based sound cards.
Creative has given me permission through email to send these to the linux-firmware repository under the same license as the previous ca0132 firmware. I asked my contact if they would sign-off on it, but they said to go ahead and submit it and that if there was any issue to contact them.
If you need to contact them, or if there's more info needed, let me know and I can get see what I can do.
I'd really like to see a Sign-off from someone at Creative. It's not that I don't trust your word that they agreed to it, but we have nothing to go back and verify they actually agreed to allow this to be redistributable, etc.

Please can anyone take a look at this pull request?
It's mandatory for the CA0132-based cards that are now supported better in the upstream kernel tree.
Thanks!
