I was reading cooker ML a few days ago (yes I know, it's a strange idea)
when I've read that Mandriva has stopped using (and thereof developing it).
They have switched to NetworkManager (you all know this tool).
What will Mageia team do ? Continue to maintain and enhance drakx-net or
follow all others distributions with NetworkManager ?
Just a precision, I use Networkmanager with mageia1 on my laptop (due to the
VPN we use at work)
drakx-net code is used everywhere (installer, mga_applet, ...)
so we still have to maintain it in order to set up network
while installing.
One thing drakx-net is missing IIRC is IPv6 support,
and that would be good to have for Mageia 2 too...
so we would have to transform drakx-net basecode into
something that relay back data from NM.
Dunno what does anaconda (RH installer), does it set up
network on his own or does it uses NM?
