I'm subscribed to Bluez-users digest as well as gnome-bluetooth, 
read this group on Gmane, and I would v. much like to know where 
I could see that discussion...  

Admittedly, *following* it might well be a different thing, for 
me, but I don't remember seeing references to the PIN helper 
concept being deprecated. I have seen references on Ubuntu's 
Users Mailing List that "pairing in edgy eft seems disabled or 
at least inactive" but I don't know if that's just rumour. 

I'm probably doing something horribly, horribly wrong. Any 
info greatly appreciated.

Regards.
