Expand the 802.11 section in the ifmedia(4) man page.
It has become increasingly difficult to make sense of wireless man pages without resorting to Wikipedia for help. My goal is to provide background information about technical terms used across wireless man pages, such as "MIMO" and "MCS". jmc@ suggested that ifmedia(4) would be a suitable place.
This new ifmedia(4) section provides context and equips curious readers with additional technical terms to research if they wish.
Information about how 802.11 transmission rates work (roughly) and how they evolved with each standard revision we support has been added.
Obsolete information about 2GHz restrictions in France has been removed.
Information about 5GHz channels has been added.
High-level information (11a/b/g/n/ac mode, hostap/ibss/monitor mode, information about channels) is discussed before going into detailed discussion about 802.11 data rates.

make -column lists pretty again;
specifically, rewrite them to permit some markup in the column headers, and use "Ta" instead of literal tabs; mandoc does not currently match groff 100%, but a mandoc fix may be some time off, and we've gone enough releases with poorly formatting column lists.
in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made little sense.

First pass at removing clauses 3 and 4 from NetBSD licenses.
Not sure what's more surprising: how long it took for NetBSD to catch up to the rest of the BSDs (including UCB), or the amount of code that NetBSD has claimed for itself without attributing to the actual authors.

This new ifmedia(4) section provides context and equips curious readers with additional technical terms to research if they wish.
Information about how 802.11 transmission rates work (roughly) and how they evolved with each standard revision we support has been added.
Obsolete information about 2GHz restrictions in France has been removed.
Information about 5GHz channels has been added.
High-level information (11a/b/g/n/ac mode, hostap/ibss/monitor mode, information about channels) is discussed before going into detailed discussion about 802.11 data rates.

make -column lists pretty again;
specifically, rewrite them to permit some markup in the column headers, and use "Ta" instead of literal tabs; mandoc does not currently match groff 100%, but a mandoc fix may be some time off, and we've gone enough releases with poorly formatting column lists.
in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made little sense.

First pass at removing clauses 3 and 4 from NetBSD licenses.
Not sure what's more surprising: how long it took for NetBSD to catch up to the rest of the BSDs (including UCB), or the amount of code that NetBSD has claimed for itself without attributing to the actual authors.

Expand the 802.11 section in the ifmedia(4) man page.
It has become increasingly difficult to make sense of wireless man pages without resorting to Wikipedia for help. My goal is to provide background information about technical terms used across wireless man pages, such as "MIMO" and "MCS". jmc@ suggested that ifmedia(4) would be a suitable place.
This new ifmedia(4) section provides context and equips curious readers with additional technical terms to research if they wish.
Information about how 802.11 transmission rates work (roughly) and how they evolved with each standard revision we support has been added.
Obsolete information about 2GHz restrictions in France has been removed.
Information about 5GHz channels has been added.
High-level information (11a/b/g/n/ac mode, hostap/ibss/monitor mode, information about channels) is discussed before going into detailed discussion about 802.11 data rates.
