Bug#270538: Debian lags comparing with other distributions
This is a stigma of Debian - all major distributions are providing this package for a while, while Debian lags far behind. NetworkManager has got a lot of excited press, it's currently the best if not the key tool for network selection on the Linux mobile desktop. The search on Internet reveals that this package is much needed and sought after in Debian:

No wonder if people switch to other distributions, because Debian does not provide the desktop experience they are expecting to get from Linux.
There was ongoing work to package NetworkManager for Debian (see above). Does anybody know if it is still active? Is help needed maybe?
