I thought it would make sense to cc wireless as they have similar
paradigms constructs (probably due the fact both are IEEE standards?).
As well we took some ideas from wireless as base. Moreover we were
talking about things which wireless already solved.
I was hoping to get some feedback if somebody knows the right do's and
don'ts of managing a wireless subsystem and I am pretty sure some
802.11 developers have more knowledge about it than some 802.15.4
developers (including myself).

I apologise for this. Please Miquel drop wireless for your future patch-series.

Miquel please slow down the amount of patches. First sending the
fixes, then new features in small series one by one. And with one by
one I mean after they are applied.
