I am sponsoring this case for Mikore Li. It is to provide a new
wireless(IEEE802.11b/g) driver, urtw(7D), for RealTek RTL8187L USB
chipset. The requested release binding is micro/patch.
The architecture and interface of it are clear enough to be a self
review, so the case is marked as "closed approved automatic".
