Comment(by rsmith):

 Replying to [comment:5 cscott]:
 > Mitch seems to suggest that we should be generating the bootfw RPM
 automatically based on http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/LATEST, in the
 same way that dilinger automatically builds our kernel RPMs.  It seems
 reasonable for joyride to pick up released OFW firmware automatically.

 joyride.

 But this won't work in this case.  Q2D08a is not on the webpage or via
 d.l.o/pub/firmware/LATEST

 Its a test build not yet released, but thats what needs to go into joyride
 rather than latest?
 Perhaps we need a /pub/firmware/TESTING?
