Hi All,

I'm helping Greg do a bit of cleanup in the staging tree, I noticed that
wlan-ng driver is maybe ready to be moved out of staging. Are there
any TODO tasks left to do beside checkpatch.pl clean-up?

For questions like this you should CC linux-wireless.

I happened to look through this code recently.  It's terrible.

And uses wireless extensions, yuck. There's a lot of work to get it into
reasonable shape, fixing checkpatch warnings will not be enough.

On the same subject, the wilc1000 driver has taken some pretty big
steps in the past few days, how far away do you think it is from
graduating from staging?

I have 221 patches in my to-apply queue to be merged for this driver, at
the very least, those need to be merged before anyone should review it
for graduation.  That number also implies that there is still quite a
lot to be done, but I would not know for sure until that happens.

I figured that was the case (there's a _lot_ of churn on that driver)
however I've noticed the patches recently have swung away from being
straight checkpatch / coding style cleanups towards feature additions
and bug fixes, hence my question.

Please feel free to audit it and let us know the details :)

After looking at the latest round of patches, I take back my comment:
it's not ready.

Thanks,
