Not to mention a fairly complete wireless extensions implementation. The wlan-ng stuff is kind of a pain after being spoiled by wireless extensions, especially since debian has integrated the wireless extensions options directly in the interfaces(5) file.
I have devices I deploy in AP mode or STA mode, so being able to use the same driver for both makes supporting them a lot nicer.
