I haven't heard from anyone else (especially cy who maintains wpa or
adrian).

In general I like the idea of losing the ioctls from FreeBSD sooner or

Until late Spring 2025 I personally will not be able to commit much time
to this.  I can answer an occasional question but not fully mentor such
a project.
