Josh,

HIS thoughts... :)

NYCwireless would certainly like to see a comparison of this 
information (and there are a couple of other distros as well, like 
wifibsd.org). We can definitely put up your information on the site.

One thing that's important about such a comparison is looking beyond 
pure feature comparisons. Important areas of comparison:

- Ease of use (UI, default settings, documentation, ease of 
installation)
- Community (activity of community, integration of community requested 
features, helpfulness)
- Security (default security settings, ease of configuration, 
documentation of best practices, fast updates to distro)
