Subject: Future handling of AR5416

In my helping with wireless on the openSUSE Forums, I recently tried to help a 
user with an AR5416 (Vendor ID 168c, PCI ID 0023). The user has kernel 2.6.25.11 
and gets the "Device not yet supported." message. By looking at the code, I see 
that same situation still exists in wireless-testing.

So that I may advise the OP accurately, will this chip be supported in the near 
future, or should I recommend that he use ndiswrapper?
