The rt2x00 members received the specsheets under the condition that we didn't distribute them further. So everybody which requested the datasheets from the rt2x00 project were presented with a choice: 1) We provide the email address of the Ralink contact person which can device if you can get the specsheet or not (possibly under NDA, but this isn't always the case). 2) Specific questions about the registers can be asked and we give all the information we know from our work on the rt2x00 project plus additional information from the specsheet. Seeing that the specsheet doesn't always match reality, you get the better answers with this option, but some people just hate it when they need to ask other people for stuff. > All I've ever heard was _lies_ about current state of affairs or that > my work is in the way. I have encounterd your email address in only 2 rt2x00 related discussions (yes I have checked my entire email archive). Both cases were regarding staging vs rt2x00. So far I never said rt2800usb or rt2800pci were high quality, I never said they were in a good shape. On the other hand, I often talked about the problems with the drivers, requesting help to improve the drivers, etc etc. So are you basing this "I am hearing lies" about a random person talking on the street about rt2x00 which is telling the lie?
