Lauri,

Thanks for the confirmation about Lanbrowser. I just need some scope 
parameters for the docs.

As I see it kdenetwork3, kdenetwork3-lan and kdenetwork-lisa have 
dependencies. Especially kdenetwork3-lan which needs to have kdenetwork3-lisa 
installed and configured.

Question is do I limit the docs just to LISa and the interface shown in the 
Control Center or should I also go into SMB (Windows shares etc) and other 
utils that will use kdenetwork3? Alternately it can be treated as a whole and 
I can do the lot.

At present I don't have access to the sources, but I will shout if there is a 
problem.
