OK, I'll stay away from this driver for now (license). >> I'm not sure if we want linux-wireless to be ML, if we already have >> some Ethernet driver.

I didn't think about USB, V90, PCI(e), etc... I think situations linux-wireless as most active or linux-kernel as most generic should be used. I think I'm fine with linux-wireless. -- Rafał -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
