Well, seeing as APs should be Linux based for the easiest mode of security 
and flexibility (Windows just won't cut it, methinks) how about some of you 
Linux heads out there get together and make a Melbwireless distribution of 
LRP or Smoothwall (preferably) with all the things in it ready to go to get 
APs up and running?  Something that will run well on an old P90 with a 
100MB HD at most.

I would be willing to dispense advise and help for a day at the workshop on 
making the helical antenna.
