If there's nothing yet, maybe they can create a wiki page for it? I'd be
willing to edit the entries, either on the wiki if I can get an account,
or offline and batch up the responses into wiki markup.
I have Cisco on the wired side, Meru and BlueSocket on the wireless. I
haven't done RADIUS on the wireless yet, but can try it out and check
the values (probably meaningless) sometime.

PS - I recently heard about PacketFence for the first time on a podcast
(don't remember which one). Sounds like a very interesting and useful
project.
