I am not the maintainer of gnome-main-menu and honestly do not have much
interest or time to invest in it.

w.r.t. to network-manager, I would have considered to nmu the current
version in unstable and disable the NM support. Unfortunately this is
not easily.

Regarding the new upstream release, I only quickly glanced at ubuntu and
they seem to have 0.9.12, although labelled as dfsg. Apparently there
were some licensing/copyright issues.
As my interest in this package is only limited, I don't feel like doing
license grunt work, sorry.
