Ok so one last (not a promise ;-) ) thing ...
You basically completely back-pedalled from wanting to support white&
blacklist at the same time to no longer even allowing that in the API.
Should I really merge this? Who says you're not going to return in a
couple of weeks and want that then, making the API very strange?
The decision to have ACL only with a single list has been taken only
after a detailed (private) discussion with Jouni. I'm pretty much
convinced that this API is enough for ACL, everything else can be
handled in user space(wpa_s) like different types of notification to
application for stats purpose or user feedback.
Anyway, if you think that the dual list approach is dead indefinitely, I
guess I can apply it. I'm just not sure I believe that ;-)
As said above, I think this API + wpa_s changes are enough to do the
job of black & white list.
