I'm aware of hostapd.  In fact, I'm running it right now on an Athlon box
in the living room, which acts as my apartment's access point.  I'm merely
noting that hostapd (or equivalent) is not yet available via
NetworkManager, so implementing AP mode in Sugar would require a
significant restructuring of the networking code.
