Dear all, I have pushed the 2.8.2 tag for netcfg and I think we're in a pretty good shape. If nothing too serious pops up in the next week or two, I suggest moving it to [core]. Since much has changed, a news item is in order. Please help me write one. ---suggestion starts here------ netcfg 2.8.2 release === netcfg 2.8.2 has been moved to [core]. It has been six months since it had an update, so it accumulated quite some changes. Here is a shortlist. - Configuration has moved out of 'rc.conf'. Please move your configuration to '/etc/conf.d/netcfg'. - Connection types ending in '-old', '-dbus' and '-iproute' are discontinued. Remove the suffix if you still have it: you didn't need it. - Systemd is now supported for single profile, multiple profile, automatic wired and automatic wireless connections. - For your basic wifi needs, you can now use the bundled 'wifi-menu' tool. It is a dialog based connection aid inspired by wifi-select. - Disconnecting an interface is no longer done through '-i'. The new parameter is '-D'. Reconnecting an interface is possible through '-R'. - There is a new connection type: PPPoE. The full changelog is at http://projects.archlinux.org/netcfg.git/tree/NEWS?id=2.8.2. ---suggestion ends here------ In addition, the wiki is in need of updating. Please help out on this one (if you're no programmer, this is your chance to do something). In particular, we need to remove all rc.conf references and detail systemd usage (and possibly the NET= kernel syntax that is not documented well). Besides that I don't like the references to newlan (it sucks) and the references to wifi-select should make note of the existence of wifi-menu. Regards, - Jouke
