BTW, how is your patchset looking? If you want it to be in 2.6.25
then you need to post it soon.
FWIW, as long as you have just enough WEXT support to get it to work
with open networks I think that would be enough to get a patch merged.
Having experimented a bit earlier with your patchset, I suspect you
can probably support WEP and maybe more by now...
So, when will we see your patches?
Thanks,
John
