There are things :
- HT Capabilities IE : this should be the hardware capabilities of the
sender, be it a member of a HT IBSS or not.
- HT Information IE : this should be the BSS information, shared by all
members of the HT IBSS I think.
BTW, currently, there is no way with iw for the user to tell mac82011 to
join/create a non-HT, HT20, HT40+ or HT40- IBSS. Maybe we should update
iw first as a requirement for HT IBSS?

Benoit
