Debian (and Ubuntu) never enabled WiMAX support in our packages. I don't have plans to enable it in our Debian packages either. So from my PoV, feel free to drop WiMAX support.Probably worth pointing out, here in Australia there's been a move to get better Internet coverage in rural areas using fixed-wireless broadband. There's talk of that being based on "WiMAX 2", so there could be more demand for WiMAX support in Linux in the future.
I forgot to add, that we never enabled WiMaX support in Debianc since a/ the WiMaX SDK hasn't been packaged yet for Debian b/ there simply has been no demand so far. I vaguely remember one single bug report [1]. And this one was rather: I have a wimax0 device, but NM does not know what to do with it.
