I pointed him at the madwifi project on sourceforge. It's a Linux port of the net80211 layer that now includes an 802.1x authenticator and soon will have WPA support too.

For user-level notification I have some simple additions to kqueue to define new events equivalent to the Linux wireless extensions events (scan done, station associate, station deauth, station join, station leave).
