Future of the broadcom-wl package?

Hi,

does anybody still care about the broadcom-wl package in OpenWrt?
I think it would be nice if we could get rid of it, along with the code 
support and abstraction for different wireless drivers.
It would also allow us to rewrite iwinfo in ucode with nl80211 as the 
only supported API, which helps keep things simple.

Would anybody be opposed to declaring 23.05 to be the last release to 
support broadcom-wl?
