Having read it, I'd say "Stick to your guns mate" -- I find -source packages irritating and unnecessary. If I want source, the source archives are there. I knew this well before I considered becoming a debian developer, and many of my friends worked it out without prompting. I find the linux-wlan-ng packages to be well-maintained and easy to use. I am worried that this may deteriorate if you do not continue to maintain them.
