Hi,

Here goes driver for the "wil6210" chip by Wilocity.


Whilst I'm sure that this driver will end up being kernel quality
code, as this is an initial development snapshot, have you considered
putting it in "staging" until it's mostly feature complete?


Hi,

Sure I asked this very question before submitting. Luis advised to go for
the regular location, not "staging". I am pretty neutral about what location
is better, so I just follow recommendations on this matter.

Thanks, Vladimir.

From my own experiences I got the impression that the staging directory was more about learning the development process and converting a proprietary driver with all kind of abstractions for multi-OS support to a native linux driver. So I would agree with Luis, but you could have used RFC instead of PATCH to draw more attention to this although the '60g' term will trigger that as well.

Regards,
AvS
