the interface up and start an applciation pointing to wlan0.
A good place to host the two patched needed for qemu and what is
needed to build would probably be the mobilehotspot garage project.
Great, request access to the project and you can then put the patches up to the SVN repo directly.

I need to think about the best way to handle the kernel vs userland packages (need to be separate packages, question is how to reorganize the code so that as much as possible can be shared).

Easter I'm away from everything, the weekend after that I'm also busy and I've just been sick a week so I have a ton of backlog at work so I don't think I'm able to do much in the next 2-3 weeks.

However feel free to mail me (the usual garage alias works) your ideas (any code you want to work on just do it on the SVN repo, that's what it is there for anyway).
