+/**
+ * \brief The basis of all plugins
+ *
+ * This is the way to extend networksettings with
+ * extra functionality.
+ *
+ *
+ * Networksettings in the 1.0 release does not use QCOM
+ * for activation. You need to provide the following function yourself.
+ *
+ * A module needs to provide Name, Images, and methods for
+ * claiming interfaces. For example you can claim physicla
+ * interfaces like wlan0, ppp0 or virtual like a VPN
+ * connection and hide the real ppp device or ethernet device
+ * behind your VPN plugin.
+ *
+ * During start up. The main application searches for network devices
+ * and then looks for an owner under the plugins for them.
+ * For example the WLAN Plugin looks if there is a WLAN Extension
+ * on that interface and then claims it by returning true from isOwner()
+ *
+ * \code
+ * extern "C"
+ *  {
+ *   void* create_plugin() {
+ *   return new WLANModule();
+ * }
+ * };
+ * \endcode
+ * @see isOwner(Interface*)
