I'm pleased to announce the release of the first beta of NetworkManager 0.9. It's been a long road, starting last summer, and thanks to Daniel Gnoutcheff for getting us started with his rocking Google Summer of Code project. More information about what's new is here:
http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/ApiSimplify but the executive summary is: simpler, easier, more flexible, and cooler applets. Fast User Switching. WiMAX. System connections by default. More flexible system administration. Scales down to smaller devices. Tarballs are now available in the usual places; you're looking for the "0.8.995" version of everything: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/NetworkManager/0.8/ http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/network-manager-applet/0.8/ http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/network-manager-vpnc/0.8/ http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/network-manager-openvpn/0.8/ http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/network-manager-pptp/0.8/ (openconnect coming soon...) And I've posted API migration guide here if you want to get a jump on porting applications: http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/developers/migrating-to-09/ Note that you need a patch from wpa_supplicant git to work with 0.8.995, otherwise NM won't find any access points: b80b5639935d37b95d00f86b57f2844a9c775f57 dbus: Emit property changed events when adding/removing BSSes Any and all testing, patches, comments, etc, greatly appreciated. Lets get 0.9 out soon! Dan _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
