Unofficially, my opinion is as follows: 1. Your looking at the current driver does not taint you regarding Broadcom's intellectual property. 2. Once you have worked on the decompiled Broadcom drivers, you cannot contribute code to our driver. That would breach the clean-room isolation. You are still allowed to test and to report deficiencies, but not suggest fixes. I have no knowledge of the status of the RE of the 802.11n devices. There is some info regarding these devices in the V4 specs, but AFAIK, none of these have been coded. We've been busy getting 802.11g code working.
