net/hostapd-devel, security/wpa_supplicant-devel
Add two new development ports tracking the latest w1.fi development.
WPA developement is hosted at git://w1.fi/hostap.git however ports
plumbing provides API access to github. Therefore I cloned/forked
hostap, renaming "origin" to "upstream," with a brand-new "origin"
located on github. In theory this will allow me to git pull from
git://w1.fi/hostap.git and push to my github repo.
This will coincide with base tracking more recent developent at w1.fi,
supporting WPA3.
