There is option for breaking backwards compatibility over a reasonable time period. Assigning known new names for the defines now would allow external users to be updated over time and once most known users have been updated, the backwards compatibility defines could then be removed from hostap.git. Similar approach has been used for some of the runtime configuration parameters as well (with backwards compatibility cases still remaining in the implementation at least for the next release). -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
