Hi Sean,
What about the Marvell® 88W8385 module used on the wifistix
Open source drivers can be found at http://gumstix.com
Cheers

Dear Community,
OpenMoko is built around the philosophy that far more knowledge exists
outside the walls of a corporation than within. Internally, we're
struggling with two issues. So we're throwing this out, hoping that some
of you have can help us move past our current crossroads:
1) We can't find a WiFi Chipset with GPL'ed drivers -- We know
this has been discussed (to death) on this list, but as we're
beginning work on the next summer hardware refresh we still can't seem
to find a vendor that meets our strict requirements: Namely, we refuse
to put anything binary in the kernel.
Marvell has some nice for larger devices (the 8388). But we need
one specifically for mobile phones (like the 8686). If somebody
can help us find the right vendor, we'll give you a free Neo1973.
If you're a vendor and want to work with us to GPL your driver, we'll
give you lots of business -- and a free phone ;-)
2) We don't have enough UI / Application developers -- If anybody
meets (or knows somebody who can meet) the following qualifications:
* >= 2 years experience with GTK
* object oriented design and implementation w/ GObject
* experience with writing GUI applications from scratch,
* has software quality assets like:
o writing maintainable and reusable code
o refactoring
o design patterns
o identifying and extracting common application code
into frameworks
Familiarity with collaborative development tools such as:
* bugtracker,
* source control management,
* wiki,
* mailing lists
is a necessity.
We've love to talk with you! Please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with
links to your previous work and a resume if you have one. (The latter
is nowhere near as important as the former.)
Thanks in advance for any help!
-Sean
