The in-kernel wireless code is too turbulent right now, and adm8211 is 
specific to each new kernel version now also, so I am not sure it is 
really suitable for inclusion in the debian archive. Also, I do not own 
the hardware to test the driver personally. So, no I will not take sole 
ownership of this ITP.

Having said that, there will always be an adm8211-source package 
available at the previously mentioned location that will try to remain 
compatible to the latest stable kernel version (from kernel.org), for 
any interested parties.

Thanks, Kel.
