*** Release Madwifi-base-1_2 11/09/2004

	Completion of Fast Frames integration with WMM.
	WMM enabled by default when associated with a WMM AP.


*** Release Madwifi-Base-1_1 11/08/2004

new functionality:
	2414 chip support.
	Hal now treats new rf/analog chips as proper subclasses
	instead of adding complexity to 5112 subroutines.

	Bursting and fast frames are enabled by default.
	Netperf TCP performance on laptop is 32 Mbits/s on clean channel.

	WMM is fully implemented but disabled by default because
	it needs more testing with fast frames.   This will be enabled
	by default in the next release.

	Sleep mode will properly power off the chip.

	In if_ath.c there is a small change - look for USE_HEADER_LEN_RESV -
	which if enabled (by default) improves performance on kernels that do not
	allocate sufficient headroom in the skb buffers for an 802.11 header.
	Kernels with this problem are forced to copy most transmit buffers
	to a new skb unless USE_HEADER_LEN_RESV is defined.
	If you have a strange kernel that does not properly implement
	hard_header_len correctly, you might have to disable this method.


Directories:   
	ratectrl - contains the closed source rate control code
	madwifi - contains the open source driver code

How to Build:

	make
	make install

	This will build the hal+driver.
	The script is appropriate for build/install on a standalone
	Linux system, and must be modified for use in a cross-compile
	or embedded environment.
