4-STABLE is dead, hail to 5-STABLE! ;)

Seriously, I have never used 4 and think that 5.3 will mark the beginning o=
f a=20
very powerful 5-STABLE branch. So the reason why there is no pf port for 4.=
x=20
is, that I am not interested in it. There are efforts to port it to DragonF=
ly=20
which is still very close to FreeBSD 4.x in some respects and hence it shou=
ld=20
not be too much work to take it from there. Other than that, pf is part of=
=20
the KAME-tree and comes with the KAME-snapshots, which are available for 4.=
x=20
AFAIK. ALTQ is a problem whichever way you choose.
