Hello everybody!

I am Panagiotes Mousikides, taking part in Google Summer of Code for 
2017.  I will be focusing on testing PF for FreeBSD, possibly borrowing 
from how OpenBSD does it.  I have a project page on the wiki at 
https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCode2017/PfTesting.

I am still at the start of the project, and want to focus now on testing 
pfctl, the PF parser and loader.  The idea is to have a collection of 
sample rc.conf files, which would be parsed and loaded with pfctl -f, 
and then query pf with pfctl -sa to check that the rules got parsed and 
loaded correctly.

I would be interested in gathering test cases, and thought that this 
mailing list would be a great place to start!

This summer project will also focus on testing the function of pf as 
well as build a test environment, probably on Jenkins.  Any comments or 
insights are also welcome!

All the best,
Panagiotes
