[ Hi Kel, this is a semi automatic mail. I know we have spoken about it
some time ago, however, I wanted to ask you to reconsider. If you have
the same opionion about madwifi and conglomeration modules, please just
close the bug, excuse the distrurbance and I'll never bug you again
about it. ]
Hi,
In short: Please consider letting your module be integrated into the
conglomeration package, so that the users can install prebuild module
binary packages for the Debian default kernel flavours.
In some more words, look at this:
http://blog.daniel-baumann.ch/2006/12/10#20061210_kernel-modules-packaging
The good thing about it: You only need to tell me 'Yes, please do so'
and I'll have a look at your module package in the next days and provide
a patch for it in case something needs to be adjusted.
Note that this is only possible, if your license terms of the non-free
module do allow autobuilding as well as binary distribution (which is
'normally' both the case, nevertheless, you need to check that; if you
need help finding it out, tell me and I'll have a look).
Regards,
Daniel

With ath5k on the way to mainline in the (hopefully not too distant) future to
join the other new mac80211 friends, I'm probably even more keen to keep
madwifi package as it is.
