ath9k needs to be packed in dependency of kernel version. So when Hardy

I guess after more thought, I don't understand why we can't just package
the madwifi/ath5k trunk and only use it for known-incompatible chipsets
with the current package (or further, known compatible chipsets with the
trunk package). Oh, this is a [5008|5212|5418|etc], I'll use the trunk

Alright, so what is the goal? The 8.04.1 milestone was dropped, what
about 8.04.2? The problem is that if it isn't shipped (if it just comes
as an update), a lot of users won't get the update because they don't
have internet access, and many people might not have access to ethernet.
And is this a
No, this still affects 8.10.
The problem is that Madwifi have been reluctant to make a release for
a very long time now. Whilst packaging trunk head may bring support

otherwise stable Atheros chipsets.
What a pickle.

Looks like the madwifi milestone for AR5008 support has changed to 0.9.5
(yet to be released), which means it won't make the Hardy release.
Perhaps in a future update post Hardy release.
