Thanks for keeping us informed.

I am uncertain as to the state of iwm in stable/11, should the
Intel 8565ac work, or not?  I have exchanged an additional
round of email with the volunteer tester, he says he is
running an unmodified stable/11, now trying to find out if he
is updating that regular or not.  Hopefully we can have some
test results soon.

Thanks,
