        The an(4) driver now supports Cisco LEAP, as well as the
        ``Home'' WEP key. The Linux Aironet utilities are now
        supported under emulation.

        The wi(4) driver now has support for Prism II and Prism
        2.5-based NICs. 104/128-bit WEP now works on Prism cards.

        The wi(4) driver now supports using a FreeBSD host as a
        wireless access point. This functionality can be enabled
        using the mediaopt hostap option of ifconfig(8). This feature
        requires a wireless adapter based on the Prism II chipset.

        The wi(4) driver now has support for bsd-airtools.

The one that looks interesting to me is that the wi device can now
be an AP!  Anyone try this yet?
