"Testing" will be done on amd64 with WPA2-PSK and hidden ssid.
Please note that this patch is quite likely to add new localized strings to D-I and I know about an l10n coordinator which will be very unhappy if new material is bringed in at the very last minute while we had *months* for bringing it in on time beforehand. I'm really sorry, but if people want WPA in the installer, then they should probably wake up at moments, in the release process, we are developing new features, not when we are desperately trying to stabilize things. As is, if this patch adds localizable material, I'll object against it.
