PDANet doesn't actually support a WiFi hotspot type of operation. They are correct that it will only share the phone's connection over USB or Bluetooth.

As far as whether or not they will allow the built in WiFi Hotspot functionality in Froyo, as SaltyDawg said, they took HTC's hotspot app out of the TP2 ROM, so who's to say they won't do the same to Froyo? They even say in the article that "they can't make any assessments" about Froyo's hotspot app, so to me, that says "we don't like it and we're just going to make excuses until we can figure out how to block it"
