The description says that the Prometheus drivers are open source.

As far as I'm aware, that isn't correct. The design of the card itself was recently opened and it largely used OpenPCI for drivers, but I've never seen the source for the Voodoo driver or any of the others made public.

It might be interesting to add the design files for cards like this that have been made public.

I've added your note to the entry. I'm working on the possibility of downloading manuals, zip files etc. So download of design file should be possible soon.
