I can't see how you can copy code from bcm43xx to bcw by mistake. Really, I want to explicitely state that in my opinion the 1:1 copying was going on intentionally. This is impossible to be a mistake. Theo, please _do_ compare the code of bcw and bcm43xx. You will find tons of 1:1 copied code. > And you are surprised about what has happened? Yes I am.

This was not a mistake. bcw developers obviously intentionally copied our code. If you read the bcw commit logs and compare bcm43xx and bcw code you will see what I mean. Yes, _really_ do this! Compare it and you'll get my point. > His deletion of the code has happened for one reason and one reason > alone -- your way of trying to handle this. I don't agree to this. This sounds more like he lost interrest in getting a clean Broadcom wireless driver. -- Greetings Michael. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
