Subject: Anyone using ray_cs wireless driver?

I'm just curious to know if anyone is using ray_cs (even occasionally
and/or just for testing)?  Does anyone even have the hardware?

AFAICT ray_cs hasn't seen any changes that were not either part of a
tree-wide API change, the result of some static analysis tool run, the
result of some random code audit by Alan Cox or Al Viro, or something
else along those lines since before 2.6.12-rc2 (i.e. during the entire
history of git).

The driver may still work perfectly fine, or it might not -- I have
no way of knowing.  As it stands, I'm inclined to believe that it is
at best a drag on code maintenance resources and at worst a broken
and useless code appendage.

So, anyone using it?  At the very least, can anyone try it?

John
