Hi Chris

I've been working on KNetworkManager for SUSE and have recently been 
separating a library out of the applet to use as a NetworkManager backend for 
KDE 4.  I'll have a look at your code tonight and see how it meshes with the 
NetworkManager API then we should have a pretty much finished NM backend just 
by integrating the lib and your Solid interfaces. 

The refactoring branch is in branches/work/knm-make it cool, the stable/usable 
version is in kdereview.

regards
