[maemo-developers] FYI : ConnMan deconstructed : http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/2009/06/25/networkmanager-and-connman/

[From: Faheem Pervez]

Agreed. I hate NetworkManager so badly. I had nothing but trouble with
it on a tablet (Mer) and on a desktop computer. I had to pin the
NetworkManager from Ubuntu Hardy when I upgraded as the newest version
gave me nothing but trouble.

icd2, the Network Manager used in Diablo, is probably the most
reliable manager I've used.

I find it hard to agree with the article due to my own experiences and
it is heavily biased.

More power to ConnMan!

Best Regards,
Faheem
