Hi,

The stable branch is 1.3. there's 1.3.1 release binaries and a 1.3 branch.

The 1.4 stuff is for development. I believe someone is working on the
right ath9k_htc check.

I'd like ath9k_htc to check that the version is at least 1.3.

Ie, my intention is from now on that >= 1.3 API won't change in a
backwards incompatible way. The first "break" version will be 2.x.

(There's only major.minor numbering; there's currently no WMI API to
push up a build string from firmware. Hopefully I'll make that happen
for 1.4.)

Thanks,



Adrian
