https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=247568 Cy Schubert <cy@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |cy@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #1 from Cy Schubert <cy@FreeBSD.org> --- My contact at NetBSD is good friends with Darren. Darren has stopped maintaining IP Filter for now. I have used ipf in FreeBSD since FreeBSD 3 and Solaris since 2.3, before it was part of either O/S. I and Christos at NetBSD maintain it, sharing patches and fixes. I have forked a copy onto github, though I've yet to merge my work here on FreeBSD back to it. I have also been asked to merge ipf 5 into Illumos but have yet to find the time for it. They have added a zone feature that I need to implement in FreeBSD before updating their copy to 5.1.2. IPv6 support in ipf is incomplete, it's missing from ippool in the kernel, my current focus. There are a number of inconsistencies between the kernel module and the userland that still need to be addressed. IPv6 support was added late in the ipfilter 4 release cycle. Unfortunately I am an unpaid volunteer. Support is as an unpaid volunteer as I have time. I must prioritize. I am willing to accept patches for the handbook and for /usr/share/examples/ipfilter to expedite this. Otherwise as an unpaid volunteer I must prioritize as my time permits. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
