And what is the problem depending on e-c-m? It's the base package, which will 
be available everywhere and being a part of KDE frameworks will make our 
libraries more visible and connected to KDE. We should be definitely part of 
frameworks, like Solid. Well, libnm-qt/libmm-qt are  basically Solid 
libraries. 

Those libraries are reusable, they are basically Qt API for 
NetworkManager/ModemManager, so you can manage connections and devices.
