Well, in particular, I'll be moving a new

build into f15's kde-testing repo shortly. As opposed to prior
plasma-nm builds in f15 that use some hacks/patches in nm-0.9 to be
backward compatible with nm-0.8 clients, these newer builds will use
nm-0.9 in native mode.
That's a lot of techno-gibberish, admittedly, but what it means is this
native nm-0.9 support is the future. Moving forward, we'd like to get a
native nm09 client into f15 as soon as possible, and that means we need
to test, test, test this sucker.
So, please go forth and do. Thank you.
What this also means is that we get or will get new features from kde-
plasma-networkmanagement upstream, including, but not limited to: system
connections (definitely supported now), Bluetooth tethering, IPv6 support
(not sure of the status of those, but they're being worked on) etc.
