You would not believe how hard it is to keep up with the wireless tree.
  Last time,
by the time we had something stable, upstream had changed too much to merge.

This is why you should not do your development outside of
wireless-testing. If you are doing development on a stable kernel tree
then you will likely run into huge issues. You should do development
on wireless-testing.git, always rebase when John has a new update, and
break your changes out into a small changes as possible. If you follow
these basic rules I believe you will likely have better luck with
keeping your code up to date.

That sounds nice, but at that time I was carrying a lot of other patches
needed to make my test environment work.  Fortunately, .35 pretty much
works out of the box, so I can develop on pristine upstream kernels now.

Thanks,
Ben
