Hello.

I am going to set up a new firewall.
Usually, I use the association IPFilter/IPNat.

Since the IPF licence changed and since the OpenBSD project 
completely removed IPF from his source tree, is it possible 
that a similar thing append to the FreeBSD project?

I read the public mails from Darren Reed. He said that FreeBSD
and NetBSD can use it and patch it. But, is it possible that 
things change?

Since I naturally prefer build a firewall with a supported tools 
set, could some hackers say me whether I can reasonably use IPF 
or whether I have to use IPFW?

Thanks a lot for your helpful comments.
