Hostapd makes sense to me (now) and it was really easy to setup, so no
problems with that.
I just have a fear that we don't endup in "udev-hell", that is
incompatibility between kernel and hostapd versions. It was just awful
with udev few years ago, let's try to avoid that. Official hostapd
releases should work with all official kernel releases, without any
exceptions.

I will check that later and send the results here.
