I think it is a good time to highlight once again that Atheros has supported
anything >= AR9280 with actual staff and good commitment. Our resources are
limited though so we can only focus on a set of chipsets. The AR5008 and AR9001
family are those unfortunate families which did not get as much attention and
love.

So if you want production material support you should use >= AR9280 or
be willing to grind in as the older families *are* supported but with
limited attention and resources, more with the help of the community.

I hope this helps making choices on chipsets.
