Comment(by intrigeri):

 Replying to [comment:32 chiiph]:
 > I've just implemented a wizard to handle these cases according to the
 document. The code is in my branch chiiph/bug2905_disablenetwork, it's
 against alpha. In this case, UseBridges=1 is not valid anymore, so just
 setting DisableNetwork=1 triggers the wizard in the first run.

 Great, thanks! I guess anonym will want to try it soon.

 > Do we want this on stable too? (the alpha branch is planned to go stable
 in the next couple of months).

 As far as Tails is concerned, as long as 0.4 is out before Debian Wheezy
 is frozen (that is, before June), then we don't need it in the 0.2 branch.

 Given our release schedule and relationship with Debian, I think it's much
 more important for us to see 0.4 released in time for Wheezy, than to get
 a 0.2.x release with this feature in.
