One wants to create, receive, and "understand" native 802.11 frames, and provide a sane management infrastructure. To that end, I ask that wireless hackers please study stub 802.11 code that DaveM wrote, posted at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/patchkits/2.6/davem-p80211.tar.bz2
