Great question! I am trying to implement something that I = could present as a Master's thesis in the university.

By what software is that "library" used?

I would assume most of the code for it is in lib80211/ifconfig and it's=
a day job to replace the nl80211 with nativ code.

Given you mentioned melifaro and 3 months I assume you want to implement an nl80211 interface for FreeBSD instead?

So let me ask, what's the real purpose for the project?
