It would seem reasonable to update API use to the new preferred API over time.

As far as the legacy provider is concerned, it cannot really be removed without losing existing functionality that is still widely used in real world deployments. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
