WPA - testing

[Ricardo Carrano]

Kim asked me to post this here.
Here is the idea for today's build. 

Based on 650 + 
(1) whatever was fixed to make WPA work in UI
(2) p47 libertas fw.

Premises:
- 657: Is not in good shape (confimed by Alex Latham)
- 650: WPA is broken, 657 WPA works.
- Our tests reveal that 20p47 is the fw to ship. Mihalis just confirmed this.

Marco,
It seems that you are the person that can do (1), right?
