</span>Making network bridges is essential so it is either going to be in the<br>
ubuntu-core snap, or in a Canonical-maintained standard framework snap<br>
that people can depend on in the same way that they depend on the core.<br>
<br>
The easiest way to approach that is to start with a "networking"<br>
framework snap under Loic's tender care, then discuss whether it makes<br>
sense to bring that into the core.<br>
<br>
I do think webdm would need to show you such bridges, which tilts the<br>
argument in favour of having this capability in the core, but I think we<br>
can start out thinking of it as a framework and then discuss further<br>
when we have a bit of experience with it.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Can't webdm display the option if the network-bridge "capability" is there?<br></div><div>The capability name I just made up.
