Hi Ben, unfornatly python-wifi are the only maintained python bindings which gives easy access to wifi settings. It will be used by a mobile nodes wifi-tracker I am writing through my master-thesis and a wif-channel-assignment-daemon a colleagues is writing. For my wifi-tracker I will try to get it into debian too, after its usefull and useable. I am aware that wireless-api will be removed in future, but I dont have the time now to write something for netlink stuff in python. I hope you will let the ITP go through with my answers.
