+
+Note on USB Vendor IDs (VID) and Product IDs (PID): The arduino-usbdfu
+project uses Atmel's VID and MCU-specific PIDs to maintain compatibility
+with their FLIP software. The source code to the arduino-usbserial
+project includes Atmel's VID and a PID donated by them to LUFA. This
+PID is used in LUFA's USBtoSerial project, which forms the basis for
+arduino-usbserial. According to the LUFA documentation, this VID/PID
+combination is:
+
+ "For use in testing of LUFA powered devices during development only,
+ by non-commercial entities. All devices must accept collisions on this
+ VID/PID range (from other in-development LUFA devices) to be resolved
+ by using a unique release number in the Device Descriptor. No devices
+ using this VID/PID combination may be released to the general public."
+
+The production version of the arduino-usbserial firmware uses the
+Arduino VID. This is only for use with official Arduino hardware and
+should not be used on other products. \ No newline at end of file
