Remove Larry Finger as maintainer of bcm43xx and b43legacy. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---
John, Attached is a patch removing my name as maintainer of bcm43xx and b43legacy. For at least 3 months this winter, I will not have a broadband connection and it will be impossible for me to update my kernel source during that time. I recommend that bcm43xx be removed from the mainline kernels as of 2.6.25. I am confident that b43 and b43legacy are already better than any SoftMAC driver will ever be. I will attempt to find a replacement b43legacy maintainer, and will continue to port any b43 patches to b43legacy until a replacement is found or until the end of November. Thanks for helping me and putting up with me. It has been great fun.
