Not really.  That was a joke (but I fell for it too)!

Darren maintains IP Filter on a lot of platforms *AND* has a real dayjob
to work for.  You're right about him having broken the build a few
times, but that's not the end of the world.  He is making an effort to
fix what gets broken, after all.

Let's not overreact, shall we? :-)

As far as a branch is concerned, please *NO*!  Anyone who wishes to maintain a
separate IP Filter spinoff of CURRENT can do it using his own disk space and
CVS repository (or Perforce branch, if you prefer).
