Hey Tim,

I'm sorry the networker is causing trouble for you guys. It was
causing issues for us in MaaS and EC2 as well, there were several
fixes to reduce the networker's impact and in fact it is now totally
disabled on trunk. It will stay that way until we have time to fix it
properly.

However, the networker even in 1.21 is only causing issues when
modifying /etc/network/interfaces inappropriately it *does not* decide
what addresses a machine should use or modifies them in any way.
That's done by the machiner. The networker just discovers the NICs on
the machine and watches in-state NIC documents for changes.

We can backport the fix that totally disables the networker to 1.22
and 1.21 as well, which will require a point release for 1.21.

How does that sound?

Cheers,
Dimiter
