| - | I will design an infrastructure for 802.11 cards to be used by Etherboot, and as many drivers for it as I have time for. Currently there is only one driver for any 802.11 device (prism2) and it's out-of-date and unsupported by any 802.11 infrastructure. My work will create that infrastructure, with the hopeful end result of a slim 802.11 layer that is versatile enough to support all common use cases and more driver development. I will implement at least one driver, probably two and maybe three, along with generic support for 802.11 features such as security (at least WEP and WPA Personal; WPA Enterprise is much more involved and probably out of this summer's scope) and scanning for available networks. | + | I will design an infrastructure for 802.11 cards to be used by gPXE, and as many drivers for it as I have time for.
