Dan: here I was not talking about software but about people. Let me rephrase: Do HUMAIN BEINGS using Windows and MacOS tolerate waiting for 3 minutes before getting online? I can imagine some non-Linux leverage here. I see little value in "enhancing" NM to support DHCP servers so wrong that they make *everyone's* life miserable (including Windows and MacOS users). _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
