Just casually wondering if anyone know if there is any work at all
being made on the 802.11 stack to enable 11n features (in particular
the extra speed), and if any work is being made on the powersaving
functionality in Host AP mode that is currently affecting all the
wireless drivers (ral(4) etc.)

Both these issues are quite pressing, leaving OpenBSD in the dust on
the wireless front, both from it being severely impaired on transfers
speeds due being locked down to 20mbps on 802.11g, and because of the
troublesome packet loss issue when using OBSD as a wifi ap for clients
that refuse to go out of powersaving mode (way more common than I
thought) when noticing that the "other end" (read: OBSD machine) can't
do powersaving.

Any info on current progress on these two fronts is greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance
