[Cerowrt-devel] SInce I mentioned this crew's work in a post, I don't want anyone to be surprised.

One note: on my flight to Hawaii for the IETF, I tried running
netperf-wrapper to see just how bloated the airplane system was (I presume
it was GoGo, but don't know for sure: I was on United).

On my second attempt to run the test, the on board system crashed
entirely.  I did not try again.
