+* The PPP manager can now be split into a separate package.
+* Added initial support for PKCS#11 tokens with 802.1x authentication.
* Introduced Vala bindings for libnm.
* NetworkManager would now keep most connections up on shutdown (except Wi-Fi
connections, VPN connections and other kinds that can't be assumed on
