Sure, I believe this would serve really a lot to the E17 Desktop Shell. We
really need a network manager for Enlightenement, specially one compatible
with nm. Also, maybe the creation of this module would be a nice occasion to
have a look in the Entrance nm-not working bug. In case some of you do not
know, if you start the system with entrance, nm doesn't work at all. I don't
know why honestly but that's the reason why OpenGEU uses GDm instead than
Entrance... I know many of you aren't interested in Entrance anymore but I
believe it is a great DM and it should be supported. I don't like exalt much
too... also because it is incompatible with nm... well, in any case I wish
you all the best in developing this tool, man!
bye,
