+There are no known users of this driver as of October 2020, and it will
+be removed unless someone turns out to still need it in future releases.
+
+According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WiMAX_networks, there
+have been many public wimax networks, but it appears that many of these
+have migrated to LTE or discontinued their service altogether. As most
+PCs and phones lack WiMAX hardware support, the remaining networks tend
+to use standalone routers. These almost certainly run Linux, but not a
+modern kernel or the mainline wimax driver stack.
+
+NetworkManager appears to have dropped userspace support in 2015
+https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747846, the www.linuxwimax.org
+site had already shut down earlier.
+
+WiMax is apparently still being deployed on airport campus networks
+("AeroMACS"), but in a frequency band that was not supported by the old
+Intel 2400m (used in Sandy Bridge laptops and earlier), which is the
+only driver using the kernel's wimax stack.
