Expanding a bit: we have US dvorak but no other variants as far as I can
tell. See the following bug reports:
  #630575
  #696521
  #698322
  #704768

Up until now we have kept the list of supported options as small as
possible to keep it simple. Advanced users should be able to set up
their environment using a default keyboard layout, and configure their
funky one after the installation is complete.

Thanks, I've bounced the mail to the bug report and answered there.

Given that:
 - the requested keyboard layout is probably not going to be added;
 - the wireless NIC issue is a known bug;

it's likely we're going to close this bug report.

Thanks again for filing it though!

Mraw,
KiBi.
