Roger,

Any plans on getting this into gkh staging tree? Last time I had a brief 
chat with gkh he mentioned that the only criteria required to get stuff 
into his staging was that it compiled cleanly. Looks like there are a few 
popular laptops (asus, lenovo) shipping with this wifi. Ubuntu is carrying 
this driver under ubuntu/ directory in our kernel, ubuntu/ where we put 
all the drivers that are not upstream and not in staging yet, but is 
openly available. Also, the firmware needs to go into woodhouse tree.

Please let us know if this is something that will happen in 10.10 time 
frame (ie next 4 months).


Cheers
