Please finish your bug, have a beer with upstream, no hurry :) This is just a whishlist (and answer you just gave me is exactly why I say you rock). I can happily wait until next upload, I have been doing some nasty shell-scripting that deals with the DoS outside of fail2ban, but in line with the social contract, our users are our first priority, and my ugly hack doesn't help anyone but me.
