+ <longdescription>This is a Linux driver for wireless LAN cards based on
+ Intersil's Prism2/2.5/3 chipset. The driver supports a so called Host AP mode,
+ i.e., it takes care of IEEE 802.11 management functions in the host computer
+ and acts as an access point. This does not require any special firmware for
+ the wireless LAN card. In addition to this, it has support for normal station
+ operations in BSS and possible also in IBSS.</longdescription>
