I am confused.
There is http://softmac.sipsolutions.net/softmac-snapshot.tar.bz2 at http://softmac.sipsolutions.net/SoftMAC, page also says "Projects using this layer: * Broadcom 43xx driver"
but Broadcom driver page at ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/bcm43xx/snapshots/softmac/ has ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/bcm43xx/snapshots/softmac/ieee80211softmac-20060107.tar.bz2 which is not the same. For example, ieee80211softmac.h file exists in both tarballs but is not identical.
Suppose one wants to use softmac in a project. What tarball contains the bleeding edge of softmac?
