changes in wireless-2.6 tree

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Just a heads-up on some wireless-2.6 tree changes...

I'm dropping the following branches:

	adm8211
	prism54usb
	tiacx

All of them will be available here for now:

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-legacy.git

I don't know how many people actually are interested in these.
The first two have mac80211-based alternatives already in wireless-dev,
and an out-of-tree mac80211-based alternative exists for tiacx as well.
Anyway, none of the new wireless-legacy drivers will ever go upstream,
so I see no more point in maintaining them in wireless-2.6 any longer.

Also, I have traditionally used the wireless-2.6 "master" branch as
a collection branch which pulled from all the other branches (and was
constantly rebased).  I will now use an "everything" branch for that
purpose and leave my "master" branch as a vanilla pull from Linus --
this seems to be the more canonical usage pattern.

There are a number of other branches as well -- most of these are there
for administrative purposes and can be safely ignored by most users.

Anyway, FYI...
