Do we really need to keep this in the menu? Does anyone need System->Administration->Network or Network Device Control now that we have NetworkManager?
I, for one, do not use N-M unless on a laptop (wired and wireless interfaces). I prefer the old-fashioned way to connect and set up my Ethernet interfaces. And I bet there are others.
Yes, but it is confusing to new users. We can still keep the command line system-config-network, I'm just advocating to hide/remove it from the menu of the Desktop spin for F13. NM has matured enough that I think it is about time to accept it as the "one default" in the menu.
+1, I think having both network config utilities in the menus is a bad idea. Of course, it'd be best to have whichever one is actually appropriate to the current configuration present, but I don't think that's possible unless we adopt some messy wrapper approach?
