    Hi,

    The people from the OpenBSD project are currently lobbying to get the
    firmware for Intel wireless chipsets under a license suitable for Open
    Source.

    Since this will not only benefit BSD but also the Linux Project (and
    even Intel) I would like to mention the URL here for people who want to
    help writing to Intel.
