Though I found several other/newer specs at: http://www.1394ta.org/Technology/Specifications/specifications.htm as far as I can tell they cost money though... perhaps they don't add anything of interest. /Robert > > > Do we have enough information to implement mLan support? > > Everything but the connection management.
