| I think some people have wanted something like this for a while:
| 
| sanboot http://boot.ipxe.org/freedos/fdfullcd.iso
| 
| This is implemented, and works at a reasonable speed (even when
| booting over
| the Internet). I still need to QA the code and check that it doesn't
| introduce any regressions. Temporarily available at
| 
| http://git.ipxe.org/people/mcb30/ipxe.git/shortlog/refs/heads/httpsan
| 
| for anyone who wants to test it.

What are the plans for merging this into the iPXE proper code stream?  Is this stable enough now to be used?
