<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Maurice Batey at 21/02/13 13:02 did gyre and gimble:
&gt;<i> Is there any move towards using NM as *the* network manager for Mageia?
</I>
Not sure about the &quot;for Mageia&quot; bit, but overall most of the distros
seem to use it and the DEs have nice integration. That said, I think
there is still too much churn in this space to say that NM will be the
winner long term. It certainly stands a good chance right now, but I'll
reserve judgement for the next year or two.

Regarding the static network configs (which is still something people
want, especially for e.g. servers where a UI focused system is not
really needed), which are soon to be pretty much the only role of the
&quot;initscripts&quot; package, these will eventually be migrated to systemd.
Work on this has not yet started as there is a lot of cross distro
divergence in this area and coming down on a &quot;standard&quot; way of
configuring things that will work for all the distros will take some time.
