I understand that dun and its apis are deprecated from bluez but not
sure on pan. I guess its api's are still exported on dbus as network
api's- unless there are plans to deprecate it too in near future...

Well its entirely upto to the use-case & sub-system above d-bus on how
to use network api's and implement pan. In case of Meego and ui based
PAN use case, it may be true, but there are still platforms and
subsystems that use vanilla pand to setup pan as GN/nap etc via a
daemon process.

True. Alternatively if the use case is to simply set up the device in
nap role with bluez, for instance,
pand -s -r NAP -M -n could well be used. It would set up the device
in NAP role after auto registering same with SDP.
