Hi,

I'm going to merge projects/ipfw branch to HEAD in the middle of next
week.

What has changed:

Main user-visible changes are related to tables:

* Tables are now identified by names, not numbers. There can be up to
65k tables with up to 63-byte long names.
* Tables are now set-aware (default off), so you can switch/move them
atomically with rules.
* More functionality is supported (swap, lock, limits, user-level
lookup, batched add/del) by generic table code.
* New table types are added (flow) so you can match multiple packet
fields at once.
* Ability to add different type of lookup algorithms for particular
table type has been added.
* New table algorithms are added (cidr:hash, iface:array, number:array
and flow:hash) to make certain types of lookup more effective.
* Table value are now capable of holding multiple data fields for
different tablearg users
Are IPv6 addresses supported as tablearg (in fwd)?
Well, _currently_ not.
However, it can be done in 1-2 hours of work.
You already can specify IPv6 address as one of the value types for tablearg,
the only thing that needs to be implemented is runtime code that applies this tablearg.
