That is basically right.

In the past patches often went to wireless-testing and to
wireless-next-2.6/wireless-2.6 at the about the same time.  However
upstream standards have tightened in ways that make me feel it is
appropriate to give patches more public testing even before sending
them for -next.

In this case, I was also sick all last week which has slowed thing
a bit more...
