e_dbus/src/lib/connman is mostly complete, just need to catch with
some new connman interfaces recently added.

e/src/modules/connman is good enough for my simple use case of connect
to wifi and ethernet. It still misses ui for bluetooth (icon), wimax
(icon) and 3g (icon + APN config dialog). We recently added the
controls dialog, but some editable fields to allow manual
configuration of IP addresses are not done (IPv4.Configuration), also
missing is custom proxy configuration. Agent (to request passwords
when they change on the fly) is also missing, but it was just added to
connmand.

All in all it is working for our use cases (couple of guys using it
now), e17 is the most complete GUI out there, connmand is quite small,
lean and fast (at least compared to NetworkManager).

Of course we'd like to have more users, with possibly different use
cases. More developers are even better, for both efl/e17 side and also
for the daemon.  If you want to help, please check connman's
documentation under their doc/ directory, there are lots of *.txt with
well written documentation about their DBus API.

The core developers are quite easy going and helpful (at #connman @
freenode, or mail list), but they are strict about coding styles and
patches must be clean in order to be accepted (Linux kernel-like).
They are changing thing in a good pace, with recent introduction of
google-dns plugin, openconnect (vpn) and so on. If things are not
still there, they might be in not so far future, but help is always
welcome ;-)

BR,
