Subject: Re: [PATCH 00/10] Remove obsolete and orphaned wifi drivers

Hi Arnd!

There is some non-x86 hardware like the Amiga that still uses PCMCIA-style networking
cards on machines like the A600 and A1200. So, unless these drivers are actually causing
problems, I would rather not see them go yet.

Thanks,
Adrian
