Hello,

I'm interested in this project to work on as a SOC project. I have
noticed that this project idea has been out there for some time.
From what I can tell PF, ALTQ and at least one ethernet driver need to
be modified. I started looking at this project last year and have
several ideas.

Is there still some interest in this project? I'm curious as doing a
quick search I have seen several other people express interest in the
project and then for whatever reason lose interest.

Is the version of ALTQ in sync with the latest from KAME?

Andy

I personally think this project is a good idea. I can't speak to the
other stuff, though. :)

Where is the information about the prior packet classifier project?

Darren,

To my knowledge this same SOC project idea has been on the table since
at least 2008.
A quick search of the mail archives indicated that others were interested in it.
