Hey guys,

first of all I want to tell you all my commendation for your fine work.=
=20
Right now I'm reading your source code to understand your code. In the=20
future I'm interested in extending (may be I would have to hack somehow=
)=20
your code. Currently I'm most familiar with upper level usage of WLAN -=
=20
especially Ad Hoc mode. Now I got a possibility to dig into the linux=20
kernel and into the maclayer of WLAN for the next years / month during=20
my phd thesis. During reading I got some problems understanding some of=
=20
the abbreviations in your code.
Thereby I was thinking a glossary for your framework could be helpful=20
for future newbies.

Would you like to help me withit?

When I will have understood the code, I'm interested in sending Beacon=20
frames 'manually' and during this step reconfigure the Beacon data=20
regularly...
