Let see if I can comment on this patch.

First of all, thanks for the years of service. You already gave the 
heads up few months ago, but now its official. It has been good working 
with you getting rid of eye-sore code in brcm80211 drivers.

So what about the other paths that were in "NETWORKING [WIRELESS]". 
Couple of them are obviously maintained by Johannes, but..

The remaining ones are probably just wext, and nobody cares any more ...
I guess they're orphaned. If anyone really really really needs to have a
patch against them, and we actually end up wanting it, I'm sure we can
figure something out :)

Applied, and thank you for all of your tireless work over the many
years that you have maintained the wireless code.

You have undoubtedly made my life easier and made things run much more
smoothly than they otherwise would have, and for that I am eternally
grateful.

Thank you!

Thanks, Dave and everyone else, for the kind words of appreciation.
They are warmly received!

Kalle, welcome to your new role! I'm sure you're the right person for
the job.  You've been the person to thank (or to blame? ;) for getting
me into the Linux Wireless community and you've also been a mentor,
guide and friend along the way.  I'm very happy for you and for the
community as a whole, which will certainly benefit from your work!

Thanks for taking the position!
