See what's involved. They may recycle parts of the ar71xx/ar724x support (maybe the ethernet MAC, I'm not sure.) Ignore the wifi for now, that's a (much) bigger task. If someone acquires an AR93xx mini-pcie NIC and wants to give me a hand, I'll steer them down the path of preparing the ath driver for the ar9003 series support. As I said, it's a relatively big task - porting the HAL code over is easy (and something I can do in a weekend); the problem is all the driver changes needed for the new interrupt, DMA and descriptor handling.
