This driver has been stagnant for a *long* time.  It was assigned to me
as the maintainer, but I have never owned this hardware.  Anyway, the
current driver version in the Linux Aironet Configuration Utilities
tarball, which is version 2.1, does not work under 2.6 kernels and needs
to be ported.  We already use only the in-kernel drivers for the
PCMCIA/PCI/ISA versions of these cards, so I see no need to keep this
driver around, as they in-kernel driver works perfectly fine and is more
up-to-date anyway.

If nobody objects, I'm going to remove this blemish from the tree on
September 9th.

If you object, you better have patches ready... ;]
