0001 *) Network Status kded module implements two interfaces under
0002 /modules/networkstatus
0003 
0004  *) Client provides network status info and signals to network aware
0005  apps
0006  *) Service allows apps providing or monitoring network status to
0007  register their networks and change their status
0008 
0009   Service changes are aggregated and signalled over the Client interface
0010   to listening apps.
0011 
0012 *) Add a KConnectionManager class to make using the Client interface
0013 stupidly easy.  This caches status, preventing unnecessary dbus calls,
0014 allows control over connect/disconnect policy and can call registered
0015 slots on connect/disconnect.
0016 
0017 *) Add a NetworkStatusIndicator class which is a simple widget shown
0018 when offline, which automatically hides() itself when online
0019 
0020 *) Add a pair of GUI test programs 'client' and 'service' which allow
0021 the curious to simulate network changes and their effects on a client.
0022 
0023 To use:
0024 
0025 1) make install
0026 2) qdbus org.kde.kded5 /kded loadModule networkstatus
0027    qdbus org.kde.kded5 /modules/networkstatus status
0028    qdbus org.kde.kded5 /modules/networkstatus networks
0029 3) in builddir/tests ./service
0030 4) likewise, ./client
0031 5) Change the service's status and observe the changes in the client.
0032    Set the client to Start Connect while the service is offline, then
0033    connect the service and see how the client responds.
0034 6) Use KConnectionManager in your own code.
