i agree,
i am not good in english as networking administor from Tokyo.
but when i read the page, i see that the main idea is so call "modular
design" and there is a long way to catch up the freebsd's ipfw

anyway, i dont think it can compare to freebsd's ipfw, as Smith said their
ipfw is the version without in-kernel NAT and tables .all these important
features
