right now i don't think so. ath5k and ath9k would likely be welcome, but all newer atheros stuff seems not worth it (say some important linux wifi driver people, they complained about non-documented stuff and binay blobs, and are thus trying to avoid atheros/qualcomm iirc). i am not aware of any more modern wifi hardware that is both well documented and available, so unless somebody is willing to do good old ath5k or ath9k, i'd wait it out a bit more...
