== Historie ==
 * 20180429 there is a test build of wpa_supplicant based on latest v2.7 code here [https://bitbucket.org/Andi_B/os-2-wpa_supplicant/downloads/]. Beside a lot of other improvements this build includes the fix for KRACK. There is also included a QT frontend (wpa_gui.exe) which can be used as standalone frontend for wpa_supplicant. You can use it to connect to wireless networks without the need of xwlan/wlanstat. Useful for testing when you have problems setting up xwlan. Of course you need a wireless adapter which is supported by genmac. 
 * version 2.2 (eCS-v1) added at xx.xx.2014
