I have already asked Titan to compile cfg80211 as module (the only change in the custom power kernel), so most likely a custom power-kernel will not be necessary in the future.
I am planning to release updated wl1251 modules to all donators for new power-kernel versions.

That will not be easily possible, because the patches are based on wireless-testing / compat-wireless and don't apply directly on the wl12xx driver.
In the long term I think it would be best if we get a compat-wireless package for the power-kernel, which then also includes a packet injection capable wl1251 driver.
Additionally we would also get better support for USB wifi cards.

I am definitively trying to get the patches accepted upstream, so non-Maemo and non-N900 wl1251 users could also profit.
Nevertheless I am not planning to openly release the compiled wl1251 modules, but as mentioned above I hope we will get a compat-wireless package in the long term.
I don't want to develop such a package on my own, as I am not very familiar with the USB stuff. If there are any other developers who are interested in such a package, please contact me.

if you would be a very nice person you would ask Titan to include this in the next power kernel...your asking for "donations"... a donation isn't obligatory but you are forcing everyone to pay for it so in my opinion you should set a price on this or be a very nice person and contribute to the growth of this community.....(if i look back to neopwn, everyone paid for almost nothing...where do we know that this time is not the same?)

lxp is not neopwn... He is just the developer not the distributor. Also you could see through the feedbacks

okay one question i got.
if i want to remove some packages programs i have to install the normal osso-wlan but when i do apt-get -f install osso wlan it wont do it.
it says the following packages have unmet dependencies:
mp-fremantle-generic-pr:depends: osslo-wlan(=3.0.20+0m5) but (3.0.20+0m5-1) is to be installed

what can i do

edit the control file and update the version to remove the extraneous version "-1".

Thank you for your donation.
I am going to look into the ad-hoc problem soon.
AP mode may be possible to implement, I will add that to my todo list. We are not really stuck at 2.6.28 wifi stack. This driver already uses compat-wireless to backport the bleeding-edge wifi stack to the 2.6.28 kernel.

I think wire transfer would be a little bit costly for small donations. Do you have other suggestions?

As I have written in my previous post it is not trivial to "include it in the next power kernel".
If you read my blog clearly, you should know why I am doing this.
Here again the hard facts (and maybe harder than ever before):
I developed packet injection for Neopwn, only because of Neopwn and haven't received any of the promised money. If Neopwn hadn't asked me to develop it, I wouldn't have done it and most likely nobody would have a working packet injection so far. I would have spent my summer working in a usual summer job.
Now as all that happened (I developed packet injection, haven't got any money, Neopwn is dead and only binary drivers are floating around), I am going to make the best out of it for all of us.
I am releasing the packet injection driver under correct GPL terms, so that the work can be reused and I am trying to get the patches accepted upstream, while I am forcing donations to get some money out of the time I spent for developing, which I otherwise would have spent at a summer job. I don't like the idea of forcing donations myself, especially after what happened with Neopwn, but I think it's the only way to at least cover the development costs a bit. I am not charging a fixed price, as I appreciate any donation. I am trusting you (the community) to donate what it is worth to you and what you can afford. I really like the community and open source in general. If I would have developed packet injection under other circumstances, it would be very different for me. Just look at the monitor mode patch -- I developed it in my free time, because I liked to have a working monitor mode and I shared it with all of you without asking for donations.
I hope now you really understand, why I am doing this.
