I understand this requirement; unfortunately when i polled for features
majority of people who emailed back were asking for the other things.
I have changed my opinion a little since last time because the
netfilter/contracking code now does netlink. I believe this could all be
achieved in user space. Infact i have started writting some code - the
problem is my time has become intermittent.
If i can get someone who can work with me to complete the work, I will
be more than happy to get that last bastion of IMQ done.
So if you are a fireman willing to be a hero (I guess all firemen want
to be heroes, why else would they be firemen?) email me privately and we
can get this done.

cheers,
jamal
