That's simply wrong. I spent quite some time at Debconf trying to trim down the size of the WPA support. There is certainly room for improvements but it's not as easy as it may seem at first. I also discussed the size implications with Otavio at that time. Patches are always welcome. Gaudenz P.S.: I don't oppose the addition of a ping command at all. In fact I don't care. -- Ever tried.
