Hey I was curious as to why for knm-0.7 . the interface was broken down to
many applets? right now i get a applet that lets me disable wireless or go
to offline mode. an applet for my wireless card and another for my wired
connection.
When support is added for GSM devices i assume ill get a 4th applet. using
nm-applet i get to control all devices from a single applet the same as knm
has always worked. I also wonder where vpn connections will fall in here.
I personally believe that everything should be contained in a single applet
and that you should be able to do things like connection sharing within a
single container.
so far it seems kwallermanager, vpn, gsm, cdma, support is missing. and
wireless/wired is incomplete. is that a fair statement? Im going to see
what cycles i have spare. since I have 4-6 weeks to have it in shape for
fedora 9. or have another release without.
