As for your other remark: as I've said before, if you don't like
bridge-netfilter then don't compile it into your kernel.
That's not very helpful. I could say, with just as much merit, that it
should be marked deprecated (so that it's not compiled into distribution
kernels) and you can compile it into yours.
What I dislike is that bridge-netfilter is faulty.
I can see this may be frustrating to many. Now and then I actually got
some positive feedback :-) Anyway, since I didn't have much sleep last
night I'll be brief.
I'm fine with deprecating ebtables/bridge-nf. The code is over a decade
old and development hasn't really picked up speed after I diverted my
spare time to other things.
From now on I'm no longer wasting my spare time on involvement in
bridge-nf/ebtables. Anyone that wants to step up to take over the git
repository (also contains arptables userspace app) can please contact me
by private mail.
Best regards,
Bart
