&gt; 
&gt; The driver, as it currently stands, is able to associate and communicate in
&gt; Infrastructure mode. Support for both 2.4 and 2.6 is available. We are
&gt; releasing this driver now as &quot;early beta&quot; code to get feedback and help
&gt; in the development, so expect bugs (and please report them)!  Of course
&gt; Intel will continue the effort (as part of this Open Source project).
&gt; We are planning to add support of all key wireless features (adhoc, WEP, etc)
&gt; over the next few months, quicker with help from others in the community.
&gt; 
&gt; NOTE: Let me reiterate -- this driver is in active development. Features and
&gt; capabilities available on other operating systems have not all been implemented
&gt; at this time. This includes wireless features (adhoc, wep) as well as
&gt; performance and power savings.
&gt; 
&gt; I look forward to working with the community to improve and enhance the driver.
&gt; So if you have an Intel wireless 802.11b miniPCI network adapter in your
&gt; laptop... download the bits, give it a whirl, and let me know how it goes.
&gt; Please also let us know if you encounter any problems that may be related to
&gt; specific distributions.
&gt; 
&gt; Thanks,
&gt; James Ketrenos
