There has been some discussion about what is expected from a maintainer and so a cleanup seems to be in order. A dedicated mailing list has been created to discuss brcm80211 specific development issues. Keeping the status as Supported although help in maintaining this driver is welcomed. Cc: brcm80211@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend.vanspriel@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- changelog: V2: let's not orphan the drivers for now V3: switch to my Broadcom email The discussion around the SAE password patch [1] was a lively one and at some point I wanted to drop the ball and be done with it. However, when the emotions subsided and people offered to help out with maintaining the brcm80211 drivers I decided to stay on for the job. The discussion had some valid points specifically on my actual involvement. Hopefully I can improve in that aspect. I sharpened my email filters to keep better eye on brcm80211 related queryies, patches and what not. Another step taken is the creation of a specific mailing list for brcm80211 development topics: <brcm80211@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The driver wireless wiki can also use a cleanup. Probably will add a list of people who volunteer to perform regression testing with the chipsets they have available. Hope we can move on in a relatively fresh new year and leave the frustration behind us. This patch was based on the wireless tree, but it probably applies to wireless-next as well. I am fine either way.
