Changes (by dcbw):

  * owner:  dcbw => marco
  * component:  network manager => sugar


Comment:

 NetworkManager already supports most EAP methods including inner
 authentication methods.  What's missing is the ability to configure that
 in Sugar.  That UI is going to be ugly, crappy, and decidedly not-kid-
 friendly (explain PKI and certificates to kids).  There's a huge matrix of
 options here that the UI designers are going to have to find somewhere to
 put.
