In spite of failures to win status with GSOC, I thought Sugar Labs might be interested in Google Code In. (GCI) It is possible that prior GSOC success is a criterion for entry. After all working with kids is supposed to be what we are all about.

As we deal with the ssid property as a string, we need to explicitly request byte array data as a ByteArray as is done in other places. This wasn't a problem before the upgrade to dbus-1.6.8; its likely that the byte_arrays setting was questionably inherited from other places where we subscribe
