bcnm

What is it ?

bcnm is a client network manager: it automatically handles network connections for a client machine. It supports Ethernet and Wi-Fi. IP addresses can be attributed statically or via DHCP.

This is very much a work in progress. Do not expect full functionality in the short or even middle term.
