Last I checked, Poly wasn't an employee of OLPC.  I don't think we can
or should make him fix our dense network problems, or run our mesh
testbed.  We should, however, give him all the support he needs (and
he's only asking for ~10 laptops) to create the sparse network testbed
he's interested in, since we will need that after 8.2, and if it's to
be ready then someone needs to start working on it now.

Yes, continued wireless testing is important.  We also need to be
willing to act on the results of that testing.
