Hi Arjan,

We are now on the way to have something functional for WLAN for wl1273.
Our starting point will be 
devel:/kernel/Trunk/src/kernel-mid-2.6.35.3-216.1.src.rpm.
We made modifications in the kernel itself and in compat-wireless/ directories.

In order to prepare patches submissions, I would like to know what is the 
process you recommend:
 - should we point in our patch submission that our starting point is 
devel:/kernel?
 - for modifications on compat-wireless/ code, should we submit patches with 
compat-wireless/ path in it on meego-kernel mailing list? or submit to 
compat-wireless project and point you to this patch?

Regards,

Claude
