I just realised my entire comment revolves around a lack of standardisation (in Ubuntu, Gnome and KDE, and firefox)
* No "primary source" for the data (I vote NetworkManager -- it already does WAP/WEP/WPA) * No definition of dealing with non-alphanumerics (Must read URL specs) * No standard WPAD library (make new -- what deals with JavaScript?) * No standard HTTP/FTP network code that takes care of proxies (make new) * No standard "enter your data" dialogs. Some dialogs miss "ignore proxy for" or miss "automatic proxy". -- get proxy config from gnome configuration https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/13661 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
