Dear network kernel maintainers, I maintain a device driver for a family of wireless broadband devices for the iBurst (TM) system. I am being asked by the community when (or possibly if) the driver will be incorporated into the mainline kernel so users no longer need to download and build the driver themselves. To that end, I've been reading the various documents on requirements for submitting a driver, and am now trying to contact the appropriate maintainers. The drivers include support for PCMCIA and USB hardware, and are currently available from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ibdriver/ I have recently made changes to support the 2.6.36 kernel, and will shortly review all the code to ensure compliance with the various guidelines regarding mainline drivers. Could you please either let me know who I should direct my request/submission to, or point me to the appropriate document that tells me? Many thanks for any and all responses, Cheers! Nik
