Great to hear!  I actually didn't know anything AT ALL about this myself
until I got my current laptop, less than a year ago.  During that time,
a lot of people have been working on these cards, and it's gotten easier
and easier to get them to work.

Many thanks to Kalle Valo (for the ath10k firmware repo), Anish
Tondwalkar (for his QCA6164 firmware), and Diego (for his guide which I
originally followed).

Before I first got my card to work, I had to download the backports,
apply a patch to them, compile them, install them, and download firmware
from multiple places.  Now, I just have to download ONE repository and
move/rename a few files.  All that's left is for someone to get this
firmware included in Ubuntu.

As for your question, yes, feel free to spread the knowledge!  It's
great to have been able to help!
