That sounds fantastic. From what I see, we'll have to be wired to
supply a complete kernel rpm, as the libertas driver comes with the
kernel rpm. It it possible for you to build kernels in a reasonably
timely fashion following Fedora's security updates? Doesn't have to be
immediate, but the XS has more "internet exposure" than the XO.

I am still interested in understanding what the state of the driver
and firmware is, but that's for another subthread...

thanks!
