Sorry for my ignorance, but know ver few about wireless technology. What do you mean by "in client infrastructure mode"? Can I use it as an access point?
Client mode means as a client to an Access Point.

What is hostap_cs?
hostap_cs is a driver which let's you use the card as an Access Point.

We are thinking about one of those "wireless community projects". I guess this means working as an AP for wireless clients and at the same time talking with other "routers" to propagate the signal and internet access. Can this be achieved?
Yes, however only with hostap_cs driver with USB patch. I heard that it is going to be released in a few weeks.

Other solution is to use linux-wlan-ng with tertriary firmware, but this firmware is not free (from what I heard license from Intersil costs about $20k).
