As Albert said it doesn't really matter, since distros will still pick
it no matter
where it is, but for new users who want to hack, I think the logical path
would be looking into network modules.
About NM being in base I really think it should either be in admin or
in network too,
since NM is not the only NM solution out there it makes sense to me not to be
in base.
If I were you what I would care the most is how easy can users find
it, since when
I want some code I find rather annoying have to browse throughout tons of sparse
repos...
anyway that's still up to you :)
