Update for F16; submitted but not yet pushed to testing:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/NetworkManager-0.9.6.4-1.fc16

The update for F17 should already be in updates-testing, I think:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-17387/NetworkManager-0.9.6.4-1.fc17

Please give bodhi feedback on either of these, thanks!
