Hello, I am a recent BugSquad member and have been triaging the
NetworkManager bugs on Launchpad. I would like to throw in my +1. 

There is a pending debdiff[1] I put in for sponsorship which fixes the
ndiswrapper driver issue. However, as giskard stated so clearly, the
newer version would be a nicer solution. It will fix several major
issues, and a slew of minor bugs in Launchpad.

However, Edgy is currently in UVF[2], making it difficult for this to
occur.

Perhaps an actual Ubuntu developer could respond to this issue? While
NetworkManager is not in main, it is still a fairly popular piece of
software.

Scott.
