Upstream looks stale, no releases since Nov 2004, and the HOMEPAGE you listed doesn't exist.

Additionally, aircrack-ng provides the same functionality, with more speed.

Comment 4 Tomasz Mloduchowski 2009-02-01 20:25:03 UTC
It doesn't seem stale to me. The development happens back and forth, if there are changes in the state of art, the codebase changes.

Please reopen.
