Stashed a reference to this on the wireless ubuntu wiki. BTW any
chance a third column might be added to indicate whether or not the
kernel is in updates yet? I take if its not in updates it would then
be in the proposed repository. For me this would be useful as if I
deal with a user on a kernel only in updates but find the targeted
kernel I want the user to try is in proposed I can just check that
page and ask him to try.

It helps me be a better lazy person.
