Just a general note... like many other areas of the kernel, there is no
wireless roadmap. There is a set of technical criteria (see '2.6.x
wireless update and status' post), but there is no One True Path to
follow to get there.
People interested in working on wireless need to be their own guides,
and find their own path. There has been endless discussion on wireless,
and not much movement. So asking questions without attaching a patch
won't get very far. The general process is just like any other kernel
development process: post a patch, get feedback, revise patch, lather
rinse repeat.
Don't wait for DaveM or me to suddenly post reams of wireless code. I'm
speculating about David's time, but I'm just too darned busy. David and
I play the roles of reviewer and advisor. It's up to YOU to "scratch
the itch" and get world-class wireless support into Linux.
With regards to development process, the main point of coordination is
the wireless-2.6 queue itself, not a human. Look at the wireless-2.6
tree, consider what your next step is, and go there. Don't bother
thinking too much about code outside that tree (and upstream).
Please direct questions and comments to the [email protected] mailing
list, rather than privately emailing me or DaveM. That way knowledge is
shared, debated, and archived.
