+1. The TC notes the decision of the meta-gnome maintainers to
+   implement the TC decision in #681834 by:
+    (a) softening the dependency in the gnome-core metapackage
+        from Depends to Recommends, as required
+    (b) adding a new dependency in the gnome metapackage,
+        as a Depends.  (In squeeze, this is where the dependency
+        was, but it was a Recommends.)
+
+2. Our intent, as stated in the rationale section of our previous
+   decision (#681834, paras 3 and 5), is that squeeze users who have
+   gnome installed but not network-manager do not find that
+   network-manager becomes installed when they upgrade to wheezy.
+
+3. A Recommends from gnome to network-manager-gnome would serve no
+   purpose in wheezy as gnome Depends on gnome-core which already
+   Recommends network-manager-gnome.
+
+Therefore
+
+A 4. We overrule the decision of the meta-gnome maintainers to add a
+A    dependency from gnome to network-manager-gnome; this dependency
+A    should be removed for the release of wheezy.
+A 
+A 5. We request that the Release Team unblock update(s) to meta-gnome so
+A    that our decisions may be implemented in wheezy.
+
+B 4. We overrule the decision of the meta-gnome maintainers to add a
+B    dependency from gnome to network-manager-gnome; this dependency
+B    should be replaced with a dependecy on network-manager-gnome (>=
+B    0.9.4) | wicd.

+B 5. Bugs in network-manager-gnome which break the functionality of
+B    existing /etc/network/interfaces rules are to be considered RC.
