Fellow ath5k hackers,

Good news. I write to you to inform you that I have decided to join
Atheros as a full time employee, as a Software Engineer, to help them
with their goals and mission to get every device of Atheros supported
upstream in the Linux kernel. I realize there are a lot of challenges
ahead but I am well aware of the how the community works and the
benefits of working with it and am confident we will find ways to
strengthen the relationship between Atheros and the community. I also
realize there are a lot of pending questions and perhaps even more now.
Please rest assured we are doing what we can to work together as soon as
possible.

I will keep maintaining compat-wireless and prism54 but I didn't get to
finish the Marvell TopDog driver port from net80211 to mac80211. Hope
someone is willing to take that over as I will be pretty busy with other
work now.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/mrvl_cb82.git

I do plan on keeping on pushing the Central Regulatory Domain Agent work
I had started. The db schema and a port of ar5k regulatory information
to it can now be found here:

http://winlab.rutgers.edu/~mcgrof/crda/

In the coming weeks I hope to finish the integration now that a db is
available and hope to also update the db with more up to date values.

   Luis
