But while you use .v3, most people use the softmac driver without a 
postfix at all. So it's not really standardised :) It's not especially 
important, so I'm not going to get into any sort of extended argument or 
anything - but it's something that would make the driver switchover 
easier for distributions to handle. Adding a suggestion to the docs that 
people use v4 as the postfix for dscape would probably be adequate, I 
just want to avoid the situation where different distributions use 
different postfixes and everyone gets confused.
