I will apply to the wireless-2.6 tree, and we can start working on the kernel's overall 802.11 support from there. I don't pretend to be an 802.11 expert, so I'll let you and Jean and other developers drive that end of things. I'm mainly interested in keeping the API simple and clean, and maintainable. Jeff
