Hi all

Just updated to a newer compat-wireless on my Ubuntu 11.04 system using
instructions on
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download#Requirements_for_bleeding_edge.

It is often referred to that you should use 'date -I' to get the correct
directory. This expands to todays date in format of YYYY-MM-DD or
2011-06-14 for today. 

However, extracting
http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2 gives you a compat-wireless-2011-06-01 directory, not 2011-06-14.

I noticed in the archive that it is indeed from today with files dated
at least from yesterday.
