[ns] using patches

[Arvind Swaminathan]

Hi everybody,

There seem to be several patches to the 802.11 code (802.11e support,
link adapation+Fading channel, infratsructure mode etc.).  Will these
eventually be added to the main release?  Until then, can someone
point me to a resource that expalins the meaning of "patch" and on how
to combine work done in multiple patches?  For example, if I want the
802.11 model to have all the 3 features above, how do I do it?

Thanks,
Arvind
