Hi, Is there any hope in the near future for a brcm80211 firmware which supports monitor mode? If I got it right, it is either Broadcom who could release such a firmware or someone else who has infinite free time to reverse engineer the blob firmware, right? Is there any initiative for that? Maybe some progress on it? I ask it because I'd like to contribute to such a project if it already exists.
