Hi Ben,
Here are some updates to our wireless firmwares. Updated the firmwares
for WiLink 6 and 7 and added a new version of the firmware for WiLink 8
and a binary configuration file. Also updated the WHENCE file
accordingly.
Please let me know if there are any more problems.
The following changes since commit 120a97ff309b6a20812f13d0f9da231eacc3311a:
Add Intel Bluetooth firmware patch files (2013-04-29 10:06:34 +0100)

No, they are not being downgraded. They are actually being upgraded.
The firmware versioning is rather weird. The second last value is not
incremental, it specifies a project. 0 is the multichannel support
project.
The driver was changed a while back to take this version structure into
consideration. Take a look at this patch:
af4e94c wlcore: change way of checking the firmware version
I hope this clarifies.

OK, I've pulled these changes. But I think it would be helpful to
change that project code to be non-numeric, to avoid such confusion.

The commit message for this bit says:
Update the wl127x and wl128x firmwares to *.3.10.0.133 for single-role
and *.5.7.0.42 for multi-role.
But for ti-connectivity/wl127x-fw-5-sr.bin,
ti-connectivity/wl127x-fw-5-plt.bin and
ti-connectivity/wl128x-fw-5-sr.bin this means the version is now *lower*
than before. For ti-connectivity/wl128x-fw-5-plt.bin the version is
incremented to end in 2.133, but this is contrary to the commit message.
Are some of these firmware images being downgraded? Should the version
numbers really end in 2.133 or 0.133?
Ben.

Thanks, Ben!
I'll talk with the firmware team to see if they can change the project
code, as you suggested.
