Hi all,

I've been in contact with the author of Knetworkconf regarding his plans and 
schedule. Knetworkconf appears like it will be in a ready state at about the

some time ago and got it working as a kcm, but when tried with 0.5 (they are

thing I´ll be working on after I release 0.5 final in a couple of weeks.
