Re: [Wirelessdriver-support] MacSense driver

[Rob M. <ro...@ma...>]

OK... Give MacSense a break.

I built that installer for them a while back.  They haven't done 
anything to hide the origins of the driver and, as far as I can tell, 
are only selling it if you buy the CD.  It's extremely difficult to 
time limit a driver under OS X.

MacSense has been very supportive of our efforts and has licensed the 
new source base I've been writing for use with their USB adapter.  Much 
of this work will likely see it's way into open source soon, but not 
until it's ready.  Sorry folks, this won't include my USB code - that 
was done under contract and will stay closed source until MacSense sees 
fit to release it on their own.
