There is HUGE NSF grant coming available concerning wifi, and I was also
thinking that applying to ardc might be an option.

Does anyone here still care enough about wifi to want to participate? In my
case I would like to gear up mainly to get into and stay
in the wifi8 standardization process in the IEEE, although I am surfacing
to fix some bugs and try to make improvements in the mt79 chipset which is
thus far, pretty amazing. I am really pleased with OpenWrt on this chip, so
far. An OpenWrt one should be arriving any day....

Anyway, a start at a proposal for ardc is here:
