Summary
We need to add as much wireless firmware as possible to Fedora.
Usage cases/rationale
For every wireless card we support and can get firmware to, we should work to make it included so things work out of the box. Because... well, we shouldn't have to explain this.
Scope
Requires chasing down firmware, chasing down lawyers about any license issues, and adding packages.
Test Plan
Get test hardware that requires firmware; make sure it comes up cleanly on boot.
Dependencies
