Hi,

I'd want to attempt partly writing or porting Linux driver to FreeBSD.  
Which readymade usb-wifi driver would be a good "template" to start 
from?  Any GPL-license issues if I choose to port the Linux driver?

RTL8187 appears to be a common 802.11g chipset now, in a local store 
most dongles were based on that chipset (like Netgear wg111v2, D-link 
and several OEMs for ex. Digitus) and it's also been integrated on many 
motherboards.

Linux driver for RTL8187 can be found at 
"http://sourceforge.net/projects/rtl8180-sa2400".
