Hi Alex, 

Without looking at the contents of this package, but after reading trough 
the #492875 ITP bug, I still can't see a complete enough answer to "what 
does it do that _can't_ be done in modemmanager ?"

So, let's ask again: ;-)

	"What does wader{,-core} do that can't be done in modemmanager?"

Cheers,
