Re: New NetworkInterface and InetInterface classes

[Federico Montesino Pouzols]

        Hi, 

        at first sight, it seems that NetworkInterface has some things
in common with NetworkDeviceInfo (network.h/cpp), are you aware of
this class? Do you think it would make sense to merge or coordinate
them?

        I think some things could go into the base library and some
others into the hardware extension. For instance, methods and data
clearly and directly related to hardware (such as IRQs and DMAs) could
be defined in derived classes in the hardware extension, whereas the
base classes could go into the base library.
