I'm also fighting a losing battle to convince people that netconf isn't
evil.  It strikes me as odd that if I wanted to talk to a
database/website
full of credit card and billing info there's a long list of API's I
could
use, but if I wanted to talk to the router or firewall in front of it I
can
only use ssh or telnet.
