The page is fixed now.  The devices are supported.  AR5006 requires
Linux 2.6.26.1, AR5007 requires wireless-testing, so it will be
supported in Linux 2.6.28.  It may be supported in Linux 2.6.27 if the
necessary changes are fast-tracked into the mainline repository.

As far as I know, compat-wireless is stalled due to changes in
wireless-testing that cannot be easily backported to older kernels.
