Not from me, unfortunately. I'm not really interested into getting full cfg80211 into Libertas. That is, until either _one_ of this two options happen: * someone that actually uses/wants the proprietary Libertas mesh steps forward and says "We'll look after this and make it work with cfg80211" * we remove the proprietary Libertas mesh support That is: I won't work on Libertas mesh. I can't justify this time investment with my employer for something that I'll never need. For my device, my own version of Libertas + cfg80211 (without any WEXT anymore) works quite nice. So, if neither of the above things happens, then Libertas will work for the rest of the world with WEXT, as it did before.
