Sorry for rushing this patch to the list then. I didn't know you had 
commit access and what your plans were. Nevertheless, since the patch 
was written ten months ago, I didn't think waiting anymore would make 
sense.
Personally, I'd commit it to the upstream svn and start extending 
for/converting to baselayout-2 afterwards. Maintaining it outside only 
costs unnecessary effort when there are refactorings upstream.

What changes are needed for baselayout-2 except for possible syntax 
changes in conf.d/net?

Thanks,

Robert
