NetworkManager's connection editor will (soon) be able to
write to those files. Even if NM isn't in use, if it's
writing the same data, to the same files, while being
actually maintained more... I don't see why s-c-network
would stay around.
Here's my short list of things I would like to see implemented before
s-c-network goes away:
- bridging support in NM
- command line configuration/management tool for nm
(I would think this could just be a management tool and have some
config file to change config, I don't care which).
