someone had ask me @ the meeting re: wpa and i forgot the name of the site
which had a pretty good run-through for it, here is the link, its a pretty
good overview:

@ the end of the presentation he makes good points that there is no ad-hoc
support which popular items like wet11,wet54g use.

my gripe of course is in regards to the certification nonsense:

However, as a general rule, any vendor is free to offer any proprietary
feature above and beyond Wi-Fi features. LEAP is probably the most famous
example. LEAP-enabled products may still receive Wi-Fi Certification even
though the LEAP feature is not part of any Wi-Fi certification test.
Similarly, if a vendor offered a mixed mode feature that was not part of the
product's default configuration, though the Alliance discourages this, the
product could still be WPA and Wi-Fi Certified
