** Description changed:

+ SRU justification:
+ 
+ Impact: Broadcom has released a golden driver which claim to solve (at
+ least the problem of association after 6 hours. As this driver contains
+ binary only parts it can only be a best-effort support for that.
+ 
+ Fix: Upgrade the Broadcom driver in Hardy, Intrepid and Jaunty to the
+ same version which simplifies maintenance.
+ 
+ ---
+ 
  Broadcom has released a new Gold version of their 'wl' Wi-Fi driver,
  5.10.91.9.
  
  It can be downloaded from:
  
  http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php
  
  The release notes state that it fixes a problem with association failing
  after 6 hours ( that's the extent of the description ).
  
  Also as part of this update, the MODULE_LICENSE needs to be set to
  "MIXED/Proprietary".  It's currently empty.
