Uruguay already uses a Debian-basex XS (which is quite different from
Martin's) and which includes some MAC-address filtering technology.
(They've also expressed great interest in expanding this technology into
a full 802.11i/802.1x/EAP/RADIUS authentication system, which seems like
it might be of mutual interest.)

Greg Smith and Emiliano Pastorino could probably give you some good
introductions if you'd like to try to collaborate with LATU.
