We wouldn't want to integrate with "another" network handler. > We don't see any reason why > the information should be passed back to NM.

That's fine. But you'll need to do the integration in NM, so that gnome-shell, gnome-control-center and others NM front-ends can get the feature without needing to talk directly to dnssec-trigger in addition to talking to NetworkManager. You don't need to "lock yourselves into NetworkManager", but front-ends already talking to NetworkManager should be getting the information through it, not through another service and arbitrate themselves. > > The code needs to integrate with various NetworkManager features, such as > > VPNs and connectivity checking.

I don't want, in the Network panel, to be talking to 2 pieces of software that I'll need to aggregate myself to get a complete picture. I can imagine that gnome-shell developers will have a similar request. > I would love to see more will for cooperation from GNOME people, so we > can converge to the working and well integrated solution.

It's a network feature, it needs to be integrated in NetworkManager for WorkStation to be able to configure it, and get status from it. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
