Subject: status wireless extensions API for new drivers
Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2007 22:15:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4761A108.2080005@jooz.net> (raw)

Hello all,

I have been working on adding support for RNDIS based USB wireless 
devices[1]. Recently I've been getting some help from another developer 
and the state of the driver has improved quite a bit. So we are thinking
about getting it into the mainline kernel.
We have used the Wireless Extensions API, but I get the impression that
things are moving towards the cfg/nl80211 API's. Is it still acceptable
for new drivers trying to get into mainline to use WEXT, or should we
switch to the new API's?

regards,
Bjorge
