Ok, its been a long time coming, but it appears the ipw* wireless drivers are to the point where being more proactive at getting them into the kernel is appropriate (at least based on the frequency of emails I'm getting of 'why isn't this in mainline?')


So, what would be the set of steps required to get a version in the queue for inclusion?


Any updates? Where do we stand with this?

Sorry -- we had some fires to put out, and then Christmas kicked in :)

We're rolling in a couple fixes into the 2200 driver this week for ad-hoc mode and will then send out the patches to this list.

Thanks,
James


I would suggest sending a patch for each driver, diff'd against -mm (which auto-includes my netdev-2.6 and wireless-2.6 queues).
