Thanks Lyndon. Is anyone else working on the driver?
Question is who has the latest code and why the hell it is not
released so others can test/work on it?
By the way, there is some code in
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/contrib/uriel/mirror/bc.tgz for
bcm57xx, I have no clue in what state it is in or if it is the latest
code.
Eric Van Hensbergen said two months ago in a private post to the GSoC website:
"jmk says bcm4401 is done internally and working, but just needs
tidying up." What that means is beyond me, and as far as I know the
code is still nowhere to be found.
Again, this is not the first, second, third or twentieth time we have
had to play this silly little dances with people keeping code private
and everyone else having to play ridiculous guess games.
It is so hard to understand that this is not just wrong, but it is
specially *stupid*?
