Has anyone developed somenthing m0n0(BSD or Wall) based only with wireless options? This would be a great project. I've been looking at the documentation and the hackers guide of m0n0BSD and try to start this project, but I'm not a BSD expert and I also got the thought that those docs were a bit outdated, but they are a nice start. Does anyone has a 5.x FreeBSD based m0n0BSD?
