Yeah, we're use the rate control stuff from the hardware more carefully now. But we're "still" using 2.6.32 internally, so it will be much easier for me to wait until the 2.6.33-rc series start (and the IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL gets introduced), otherwise I'll have to fork and keep maintain two separate trees. We have a plan to start cherry-picking the latest and greatest mac80211 stuff from wireless-testing, but we are not doing that yet. -- Cheers, Luca.
