+network-manager (0.6.2-2) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  * NetworkManager now reads the network interface configuration specified in
+    /etc/network/interfaces. Devices that are listed there and match certain
+    criteria are *not* managed by NetworkManager anymore.
+    For more on information on what these criteria are please read
+    /usr/share/doc/network-manager/README.Debian, section "Configuration".
+    This means that if NetworkManager stops to manage one of your network
+    devices with this release but you want NetworkManager to take care of this
+    device, simply remove the device configuration from
+    /etc/network/interfaces.
+    This also means that you can now setup a custom configuration without
+    NetworkManager overriding this setting. E.g. you might setup your wired
+    network interface eth0 statically in /etc/network/interfaces and for your
+    wireless network device wlan0 you can let NetworkManager handle it.
