This sounds like we will never need rt2x00 git, so does it mean we
will be supposed to submit patches to linux-wireless ?
If so ....
Hi Kevin,
There may be something changed in the upstream.
And would you please let your RD who work with upstream understand of
this information. If rt2x00 community decide to pick up linux-wirless
instead of rt2x00, your RD should change to submit to linux-wireless
for their patches. ;-)

Don't know yet. I'm not against pushing patches directly to
linux-wireless but I'd
prefer to still keep the rt2x00 list CC'ed (or at least the
maintainers directly) for
every patch submission.
It's really up to Ivo to decide since he was doing all the patch
handling before :)
but I don't have a strong opinion for either way.

rt2x00 git is always very close to Johns wireless-testing tree, so
there shouldn't
be much difference. Only sometimes Ivo keeps some experimental patches for
some time in rt2x00 git before submitting to John.

Definately!

Yeah, but that was simply to keep my experimental patches out in the open,
that might also be solved by me sending more RFC patches. ;)

So, this could be related to endianess. I'm willing to work with this
and do testing, though I'm not much of a coder. I had a look at the code
that does endian "decoding" when necessary, and it seems that those
parts were merged earlier this fall.
So ... I'm a bit at a loss here. What should I do? I could try to remove
the endian bit-juggling here and there, and check if the RF chipset
changes, perhaps. Any other suggestions?
Ingvar
