When I spoke to iSolutions about eduroam, they said there was not much demand for it, as noone had registered, so it wasn't given a supported status...
Although they know you don't have to register...
They seemed to think I was one of only two or three they knew about.
So I suggested that they might like to find out how many people were actually using it.

Yes, it is.   And if you have such experiences report them to serviceline :)

Though one person in iSolutions seems violently opposed to 802.1x due
to it not (yet) being available to sufficent standard by default in all
OSes, which I see as a little short-sighted.
