Thanks for noticing this. I've not managed to find a new URL for this
page, and so I'm wondering whether I should simply remove the paragraph
you quoted. I'm not a user of IP Filter myself, so I don't know just how
much information from that page is useful for day to day users of IPF.
Perhaps you have an opinion? In passing, I notice also that the IP Filter
mailing list is dead, and the IP Filter FAQ also hasn't been updated for
at least two years, so those links probably need changing too.
For reference, a copy of the page is at

Thanks,
Gavin
