We discussed this back then and you wrote a trivial patch to have mac80211 do the sta_notify call as required. But then you already has this code and didn't bother cleaning it up when it was possible. This is a development process issue, and partially comes from you doing so much "invisible" development in-house, and partially from John being way to lenient with you and accepting such hacks, in the hope you'll clean them up. Well guess what, it's now well over a year later and you haven't. If you don't live up to such promises, how can we take your development process seriously? The normal process that we make everybody else go through would be to post "oh, there's some API missing that we need", then you post that API and get it in, and _then_ you do the stuff that relies on it. You need to get that. johannes
