Even if you just drop current PF from FreeBSD, there is nobody, who want to port new PF from OpenBSD. And this is not easy task, as you may think. Gleb has worked on rewriting PF more than half year. So, return back all improvements after import will be hard enough and, again, nobody want to do it. :) --=20 WBR, Andrey V.
