Is this bug about a memory leak, about the applet stopping to work, or

bug is not fixed -- the issue still exists in 12.10.

Based on the comments both here and in bug 930563 that nm-applet still

the memory leak.
I spoke with Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre, who is the developer assigned to

underlaying issue

I should add that I haven't experienced any memory leaks since upgrading
