it shouldn't take too long? I'm curious how far the development for
softmac-cards is. I also hearded, that Conexant is (or will)
"ofiicially" supporting this project.

When can we expect softmac support? 1 month, 2 month? half a year? And
will conexant really support the prism54-project?

I don't want to push for softmac support, but i don't understand the
several hints on the devel-list, and just want to askm, what we can
expect in worse/best-case.

Thx
