And then we have the acx111-mac80211 driver which is really useful for me atleast but being maintained out-of-tree:

Has anyone heard of a plan for that thing?

I thought acx100 was still bogged down by the fact that it was 'tainted' as it was not a clean-room reverse engineering of a binary driver?

I'm yet to see any response to that (either TI giving a thumbs up, or a new, clean-room driver produced).
