One of the main reason's wicd hasn't gotten packaged yet is because we
had some design issues that made it somewhat difficult to do.  In the
next few days we'll be releasing a new version, 1.5.0, that will take
care of most of them.  I think we already missed the deadline for
Intrepid, but right now the plan is to try to get into the repos for
whatever comes next.

You won't see it replacing NM anytime soon, though.  Right now wicd
doesn't have support for VPN, dial-up, and some other less common, but
still important to support protocols.  NM has been in development
longer, and has more people working on it, so right now its got some
extras that wicd doesn't.
