Nope, you're confusing authors with the in-kernel orinoco driver,
which Jean Tourrilhes (who works for HP) has maintained at various
points, though the current "real" maintainer is David Gibson, IIRC.

Apparently the 2.4.19 orinoco includes prism2/PCI (aka prism2.5, I
believe) support.  Don't know about the prism3---is that 802.11a?

Mike.
