Subject: Heads up: ipw and iwi

If you are not interested in Intel Pro. 2100B, 2200BG/2915ABG wireless
cards, please ignore this message.

I just integrated the following into Solaris:

	PSARC 2005/013 Intel Pro Wireless 2100b Driver
	PSARC 2006/454 Intel Pro Wireless 2200bg/2915abg Driver
	6212808 Solaris need to support Intel wireless chip ipw2100
	6347788 Intel wireless chip ipw2200 need be supported

They are two wireless drivers: ipw and iwi, which are based on GLDv3
(mac wifi plugin and net80211 kernel module).  Both dladm and wificonfig
are supported for configuration.

Please file bugs at solaris/driver/wifi if you find some, and please
send mail to wifi-china at sun dot com if you have questions.


Thanks,
