This email is just for your information.  Recently, I tried to port
zyd(4) driver against RELENG_6 and the result, WIP version, come out
here:

	http://weongyo.org/patches/zyd_RELENG_6-20071219.tar.gz

However, this version does not work properly in RELENG_6.  When you test
this, you will succeed in attaching the device and getting IP address using
dhclient(8) but you can see a lot of packet loss.

I think that this problem come from the lack of MFCs of ieee80211
framework or USB framework to RELENG_6 because this version works well
in CURRENT with small changes.

After testing more cases, I will let you know when problems on RELENG_6
are solved.
