	Cardbus support is there, but it needs to be improved, eg.
	automatic attachments over the PCI bus etc.

	Atheros stuff is probably going to be a little while because I
	and Joerg need to study the NET802.11 framework, fix some bugs
	in it and then import it.

	Once that is done, Atheros and new wireless drivers should be
	easy to support.

	NDIS is still to be ported, properly.  I did some work on it a
	few months ago, had most of the pieces done; but I got
	distracted with more important parts of the kernel.  Though,
	once the NET802.11 stack is done, NDIS support should not be
	extremely hard to port.
