beginner develop broadcom 4360

Hi,

I'm reading documentation about FreeBSD kernel because I want to develop/port only one thing: Broadcom 4360 wireless driver.
Someone could mentor me the right direction to achieve such thing ?
I'm not sure how deep should I go in the kernel or which pieces should I really understand to achieve the goal.
I never developed anything to any kernel, but I have good understanding of C and some Assembly.
 
How good is your understanding of 802.11 and all its details?

Do you have documentation from Broadcom about the interfaces?

As kpedersen said, I would start by reading the source of a similar driver, and making sure you understand 90% of the lines of code. You probably have to work with someone else to learn that.
