I will use the AVS capture format in NetBSD, but I have some questions
and suggestions.

May we call this DLT_IEEE802_11_RADIO?

What are the units for the mactime? The hosttime? It would be nice if
the units were standardized (nanoseconds, picoseconds) or if the header
carried some units indication. Also, is it desirable to indicate which
packet feature the mactime marks (PLCP header, 802.11 header, packet end)?

Is the dot11AntennaList given in the 802.11 spec?

Any idea how the version numbers be coordinated?

Any particular reason for the super-generous, 32-bit fields?

Dave
