This question seems to be largely a duplicate of: https://meta.serverfault.com/questions/5449/will-should-serverfault-be-dropping-the-networking-support-in-the-upcoming-fut The takeaway from that earlier discussion is that the way NE is currently defined, it overlaps 100% with SF - any question that's on-topic there is also on-topic here. So it doesn't make sense to have an off-topic migration path from here to there.
