Subject: cdrom: There is no wireless manager included on CD1.iso
Package: cdrom
Severity: wishlist

The installation of Debian is very difficult for laptop users using WPA or 
using (temporary/failed) off-line installation, since there is no network 
manager included on CD1. This might well be a deal-breaker for most newcomers 
to Debian GNU/Linux, as configuring with wpasupplicant is obtrusive, and far 
from common knowledge. 

Including network-manager-gnome (and/or wicd-curses) would be a great 
improvement.
