Johannes,

I do hear it, and I agree with it!!!

I will work to support this new
iftype, PBSS, properly. I just don't have enough data to do it right
now. Thus, I want initial driver for the 1-st ever 60g card to be merged;
this will serve as test bed for the next framework modifications.

I recall, you was asking me why do I pushing to do 60g related
infrastructure changes when no one driver exists. I want to address this
and then return to the infrastructure.

Let's have at least something working as 1-st step. Now, I need to assemble
all pieces of the puzzle:

- initial infrastructure (done)
- minimal driver (these patches)
- tools (wpa_supplicant partially done, other patches sent; iw - partially done)
- regulatory - patches submitted.

Then, when minimal support will be in place, I can handle new features.

Hope it explain why I want to merge minimal driver 1-st.

Thanks, Vladimir
