You should use the NETWORKMANAGER_0_6_0_RELEASE branch for "bleeding
edge". The SVN trunk has new DBUS API and doesn't currently work at all
with nm-applet.

If you want to help out with the development, see
NetworkManager/libnm-glib/*.[ch] and replace the DBUS code in nm-applet
with libnm-glib code.
