As wireless device driver development is a fairly new concept to me I spent most of my time on reading tutorials, articles and code of existing solutions. I am organizing my notes and bookmarks on FreeBSD website here [1]. If you're interested in Wi-Fi driver development it is a good place to start. Additionally, I actively participate in the FreeBSD Wi-Fi IRC channel. 802.11n support is being actively developed at the moment. Adrian and I will discuss a todo list for the following weeks so hopefully I'll have some more interesting news next week.
