I've been wanting to merge it, and starting working on the generic wireless layer, for a while now.

Poke. Poke.

Hey Jeff,

can you elaborate on the wireless layer bit?

Yes, it is very much alive. However.. I'm sorry I haven't been able to get enough time to work on finishing the cleanup I planned for 2.6 submission. Another IEEE 802.11 meeting and WPA2 testing took a lot of time during last weeks. Anyway, it looks like I might not need to travel anywhere during the following few weeks (well, at least I'm hoping ;-), so I could try to concentrate on this now.

I'll try to get an initial submission for wireless-2.6 done over the weekend so that something becomes available for reviewing. What would be the best format for this? Would it be ok to send a patch against the current linus-2.5 tree for the couple of modified files (Kconfig, Makefile) and rest of the files in a separate tarball since they do not exist in the current tree and are relatively large?
