*Hi Sato,*

*I am also in this email list, If you have any question, You can ask,I just
double checked whether I made mistake or not, and I only found "**To be
honest, my rewrite version of ipfw2 is nothing special but it runs on this
great system". So **please make me a joker in front of all these big
bosses. *

*Compare to the ipfw in FreeBSD, there are few differences. not a big deal.*
*1. modular*
*2. lock-less*
*3. old version*

*Regards,*
*Bycn82*
