Re: [Madwifi-devel] Whats the point?

Hi there,

Just to add my 2 cents. I found announcements like "madwifi is dead"
counterproductive. People are free to contribute to any project they
like. "We" can just encourage people to contribute to ath5k if people
think ath5k is "better".

Since trunk is "dead", I think nobody would care if I break it once
again, so here is my proposition:

- - I can quickly merge madwifi-dfs back to trunk
- - I can add some work i can document like calibration, IBSS merge,
proper support for something else than AR5212 (which I've been focusing
one too much) and TXQ stuff
- - If people are OK, I can document most of the work I've done since I've
been learning lots of stuff that could be useful for ath5k.
- - I could extend and publish my test document (yes, I have done
regression testing...). I could publish my testing scripts, mainly
focussed on IBSS merge and DFS.

Sorry, no ETA for that. I should take 2 - 3 days of man work.

Comments?

Regards,
Benoit

PS: I've been trying ath5k, but just got a big kernel panic :-(. So, i
cannot say it's quite stable, except if people tell me what git tree I
should use (I have tested wireless-testing).
