| First of all, the best thing would be that this driver becomes obsolte by | ||
| adding support for Hermes II and Hermes II.5 cards to the existing orinoco | ||
| driver. The orinoco driver currently only supports Hermes I based cards. | ||
| Since this will not happen by magic and has not happend until now this | ||
| driver provides a stop-gap solution for these type of cards. | ||
|
|
||
| Having said that, the following wishlist comes to mind to make the driver | ||
| suitable as fully supported kernel driver. Feel free to expand/enhance the | ||
| list. | ||
|
|
||
| TODO: | ||
| - verify against a Hermes II.5 card | ||
| - verify with WPA encription (both with H2 and H2.5 cards) | ||
| - sometimes the card does not initialize correctly, retry mechanisms | ||
| are build in to catch most cases but not all | ||
| - once the driver runs it is very stable, but I have the impression | ||
| some the crittical sections take to long | ||
| - the driver is split into a Hermes II and a Hermes II.5 part, it | ||
| would be nice to handle both with one module instead of two | ||
| - review by the wireless developer community | ||
| - verify the code against the coding standards for a propper linux | ||
| driver | ||
| - resolve license issues (?) | ||
|
|
||
| DONE: | ||
| - verified against a Hermes II card (Thomson Speedtouch 110 PCMCIA | ||
| card) | ||
| - verified with WEP encription | ||
|

||
| Please send any patches or complaints about this driver to Greg | ||
| Kroah-Hartman <greg@kroah.com> and Cc: Henk de Groot <pe1dnn@amsat.org> | ||
| Don't bother the upstream wireless kernel developers about it, they | ||
| want nothing to do with it. |
