Atheros in encouraging developers to avoid proprietary code in their work,
using clean room approaches like the techniques used in the development of
OpenHAL."About OpenHALOpenHAL is low-level interface software for Atheros
802.11 wireless cards. Previously, Linux-based systems needed a proprietary
Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) plus a wrapper driver to make use of these
wireless cards. OpenHAL is a free and open source replacement for the
proprietary HAL. OpenHAL was initially based on ar5k, which was used as the
basis for a proprietary HAL replacement for the OpenBSD project.
