Personally, I would also add this :

Three reason :
1) It's a cleanup and does not add any new feature
2) It does not change the rest of the patches
3) Userspace part has already gone in distro, not
including this bit would mean breaking userspace.
Is there any code that corresponds to that? Or does the comment
simply indicate policy?
The other bits can be included at a later time ;-)
Well, maybe. But, I think we should now consider WE to be in
maintenance mode. I think nl80211 is the future, as long as Johannes
delivers.
Thanks,
John
