My sincerest apologies to Damien and everyone involved. I was going by
historical convention where when someone posts a new, out-of-tree driver or
patch-set it's "theirs." Further following tradition, how does "iwiNG" sound?

Using the stock driver, I get hard lock-ups during interface configuration,
wpa_supplicant crashes, dhclient crashes, firmware "fatal errors" and device
wedges that require a reboot. In the same world and kernel, the iwiNG
driver has absolutely none of these problems.
