Which reminds me: NetworkManager does have such an API already, and there are applications that rely on it (Liferea, for example). As I don't see other distros leaving NM for CM as Ubuntu intends to do in a near future, perhaps it's time to start thinking about drafting a standard that both managers should follow. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
