In a way, I think it's also best if the community would work this driver out, because if Nvidia steps in and gets involved in this project, chances are that they might update their Linux kernel driver to become incompatible with Nouveau/NVK.
Would that necessarily be bad. If they made a proper open-source Nvidia driver - similar to the in-kernel AMDGPU - then Nouveau could still build off that or be merged in to add functionality.
I don't miss the old fglrx drivers now that AMDGPU is around.
Definitely would not mind having an AMDGPU equivalent for Nvidia. It'd be awesome if things like proprietary CUDA could be an optional installable package alongside an open graphics driver.
