Let me clarify myself on the Policy point.
Policy says: "an encryption level SHOULD be WPA/TKIP or better". So Policy
is not a show stopper for providing WPA/AES only.

Tomasz, all
let me comment/answer selectlively:
* we definitely have to change the Policy (I'd say: adjust it to the
technical development) in the next year or so. The WPA problem is one of
the those we have to deal with and IMHO should have implication on the new
version of eduroam technical reqs. So I see it as a normal service
evolution while your proposal with eduroam2 looks to me as a trial to
avoid Policy ... and create annother service ... with another policy?
* our tools (eduroam database, maps) were designed to help and inform
users on the cypher mash and provide info on WEP/WPA/TKIP/AES/XYZ. I woder
why we are not using them to the full potential?
