Sorry if you felt this like a kind of pressure to have you do what you don't want. It would be a shame, given the great work you did already on netcfg... I think that, anyway, the merge work of these WPA patches, which you did, is already a great progress, and having it so early in the squeeze release process will certainly motivate someone to make it work. I suggest we wait for some mor einput, then the release of squeeze....then merge everything in netcfg, upload it to unstable....so that at least daily builds have your changes (and I can work on the needed debconf templates).
