* refactor NMDevice into a GObject-based framework with separate
		objects for wired and wireless.  The following files are no
		longer used but should stick around for a bit so we don't
		loose code through the cracks:
			NetworkManagerDevice.c
			NetworkManagerDevice.h
			NetworkManagerWireless.c
			NetworkManagerWireless.h

	The intent here is to allow each device type to manage its own
	connection & activation life-cycle, ie to allow wireless devices
	to interface with wpa_supplicant, etc.  There's a fair bit of
	encapsulation breakage right now that should gradually get pulled
	back into each device, along with things like periodic property
	updates and link probing.

* Kill dhcpcd.  We now use "dhcdbd", a dbus daemon that controls dhclient.
	  This means that NetworkManager shouldn't have DHCP issues anymore.  It also
	  means you need dhcdbd, which you can get here (get the latest one):

		http://people.redhat.com/jvdias/dhcdbd/

	  Technically NetworkManager can use any DHCP daemon that uses the same DBUS
	  interface as dhcdbd.

	* Rewrite device activation to facilitate the new DHCP infrastructure and
	  future improvements.  Its now "activation request" based, ie there is a single
	  activation request composed of the device, access point, and other info which
	  follows the entire activation process.  There are 5 stages of the activation
	  process which correspond to:

		1) Device preparation
		2) Device configuration (bring it up, set ESSID/Key/etc)
		3) IP Config Start (fire off DHCP if we're using it)
		4) IP Config Get (grab config from DHCP or static config files)
		5) IP Config Commit (set device's IP address, DNS, etc)

	  Note that there is no longer a "scanning" step, since the access point must
	  be known _before_ activation starts.  If the access point drops out or does
	  not exist for some reason, the entire activation process fails and must be
	  restarted for a different access point or device.

	Patch from Bill Moss:
	* gnome/applet/applet.c
		- Fix type of vpn_failure dialog -> vpn_banner dialog

Tighten up handling of wireless devices that don't support wireless
	scanning (ie, Orinoco).  Due to restructuring of code, these devices
	hadn't been doing pseudo-scanning for a while either and would just
	spin waiting for an access point.  They are now manual devices where
	the user must choose the access point from the menu every time.  All
	"allowed" access points are listed in the applet's menu regardless
	of whether or not they can be seen by the card, since it can't scan
	anyway.

	* src/NetworkManager.c
		- (nm_wireless_link_state_handle): new function, but only update
			the "best" ap for non-scanning devices when its not activating,
			and when no device is being forced on the card
		- (nm_link_state_monitor): split wireless link state handling out
			into separate function

	* src/NetworkManagerDevice.c
		- (nm_device_copy_allowed_to_dev_list): new function
		- (nm_device_new): populate non-scanning cards' AP lists with
			access points from the "allowed" list
		- (nm_device_new): don't start a scanning timeout for devices that
			can't scan
		- (nm_device_activation_schedule_finish): new parameter, should be
			the AP that failed to be connected to, pass it on to the
			activation finish function in NetworkManagerPolicy.c
		- (nm_device_activate_wireless): don't ever try to get a new AP
			for non-scanning devices, just fail.  The user must choose
			a new access point manually.
		- (nm_device_activate): grab the AP that failed connection and
			pass it on
		- (nm_device_update_best_ap): Clear the best AP if we don't have
			a link to it, user must manually choose a new one
		- (nm_device_do_pseudo_scan): remove function
		- (nm_device_wireless_process_scan_results): remove bits for non-
			scanning cards since they never get here
		- (nm_device_wireless_scan): remove bits for non-scanning devices,
			and fake the scan list for test devices a bit earlier

	* src/NetworkManagerPolicy.c
		- (nm_policy_activation_finish): use the failed_ap that we get
			passed rather than getting the best_ap from the card, which
			may have changed since we were scheduled
		- (nm_policy_allowed_ap_list_update): for non-scanning devices,
			update their scan list directly from the allowed list when
			we get updates to the allowed list from NetworkManagerInfo

	* src/NetworkManagerPolicy.h
		- New member for failed access point in NMActivationResult

  -------------------------------------

	Driver Notification patch: notifies the user when their driver
		sucks.  Gives them the option to ignore further insertions
		of the card that has the sucky driver.

	* NetworkManager.h
		- Remove the SEMI_SUPPORTED member from the NMDriverSupportLevel
			enum and replace it with NO_CARRIER_DETECT and
			NO_WIRELESS_SCAN

	* panel-applet/NMWirelessApplet.[ch]
		- Merge essid.glade -> wireless-applet.glade
		- Implement the "Your driver sucks" notification dialog

	* panel-applet/NMWirelessAppletDbus.c
		- Change stuff from getSupportsCarrierDetect->getDriverSupportLevel
		- Grab hardware address for each device from NM too
		- Check whether the driver for each device sucks or not whenever
			a new device is noticed

	* panel-applet/NMWirelessAppletOtherNetworkDialog.c
		- Deal with stuff being in wireless-applet.glade now rather than essid.glade

	* src/NetworkManager.c
		- Fix a double-unref on device removal

	* src/NetworkManagerUtils.c
		- Set appropriate driver support level on a device that doesn't
			support scanning or carrier detection

	* src/nm-dbus-device.c
		- New "getHWAddress" dbus method on devices
		- getSupportsCarrierDetect -> getDriverSupportLevel

* configure.in
		- Check DBUS version in configure, and set the C macros
			DBUS_VERSION_[MAJOR,MINOR,MICRO]

	* info-daemon/NetworkManagerInfoDbus.c
		- Remove #if 0-d section of code that quit NMI if NM went away.

	* panel-applet/NMWirelessAppletDbus.c
		- Trap the "ServiceOwnerChanged" signal that's new in dbus-0.23

	* src/NetworkManager.c
	  src/NetworkManagerMain.h
	  src/NetworkManagerDbus.c
		- Trap the "ServiceOwnerChanged" signal that's new in dbus-0.23
		- Make updating of our Allowed Wireless Network lists from NMI
			an idle function in the main thread now, with a high priority.

* Cache last-known-good wireless authentication method in
		NetworkManagerInfo, and use that method first during
		wireless device activation.  Should speed up devices that
		need Shared Key authentication method since Open System is
		now the default.

	* Remove the hack to not do full activation on wired connections
		that are active when we launch, it causes too many problems
		with name resolution and was a hack in the first place.

	* Re-work wireless device activation again somewhat to have a
		clearer chain of events and to use last-known-good
		authentication method of the access point.  Also provide
		better status throughout activation to ensure the applet
		can tell the user exactly what's going on.

	* Remove the "find wireless network" code and now simply attempt
		to activate with that access point.  This reduces the delay
		between selecting "Other wireless Network" and actually
		connecting to that network.

	* Correctly stop the device's worker thread when its removed.

* dhcpcd/client.c
		- Rework the DHCP client code to be much less chatty when
			it receives non-DHCP UDP packets during the DHCP run
			(reported by and preliminary patches from Bill Moss)

	* Move wireless scanning to a separate thread.  This thread forwards the
		results to the main thread when done where they are integrated into
		the device's access point lists.  This keeps the main thread (which
		does all the DBUS communication) from being blocked for long periods
		of time by wireless scanning.

	* Make state modification an idle routine in the main loop, and trigger
		state changes rather than polling for them.

	* src/backends/NetworkManagerGentoo.c
		- Fix up invalid C90 code (reported by Christoph Ruessler)

	* src/NetworkManagerDevice.c
		- Revert IPv6 patch for wired devices from 2004-12-22 for
			router advertisements, causing problems and infinite loop
			during "best" device determination due to link going up/down
			(reported by Bill Moss)

	Apply patch from Peter Jones
	* src/NetworkManagerDevice.c
		- Shortcut for link-checking for ipw2x00 cards
		- Split out association check into separate routine
