I've never kept a blog(*) before. I've never needed to. I need to keep a blog now no more than I ever did. So, I'll probably post once or a couple times, then promptly forget I ever had(*) a blog.

I've noticed in the madwifi tickets that AR5008/AR5416 wireless was functioning and had been broken in the past due to updates but the regressions were fixed. Also, in my previous install on 2008.06.22, my D-Link DWA-552 was working with wireless...
