Thx for the heads-up greg. Nice to see that old pre-blog entry again. I wrote a 3 and 10 year retrospective of the project here: http://the-edge.blogspot.com/2010/10/who-invented-embedded-l...

I never found out if they settled the case or not... I was quite irked at everyone about a patent that seemed so obvious...

Since then a lot of folk have come out to me about how we ALL were in just those few months, inventing the wifi future. We all invented it together, and you and I wrote enough of our bit down so everyone could invent more.

For those here that don't know my work on bufferbloat, I have kept on fixing wifi, with the outputs of the make-wifi-fast project finally the default in the linux kernel, and fq_codel/sqm/cake also covering the world. https://lwn.net/Articles/705884/

wish it was taking less time for the news and implementations of that to spread than it has.
