My personal goal is to fix those problems. I understand that John and Johannes are not very interested. I personally think it's not difficult to fix, so far, every bug reported was quite easy to fix. The main issue is lack of testing, I don't have a 64 bit box. Bug reports are *very* difficult to get because there are very few users of wireless on 64 bits and because "the box is in production, I can't try this". Now, the good news is that many of such bugs have been fixed in the last few months, actually more that in the few previous years. Some of the bugs reported *may* be fixed in later versions. Have fun...
