We're not real keen on allowing people to promote dangerous, insecure third party things. You're welcome to contribute to the official package, and then you're welcome to talk about it on our sites and lists. There's no reason for that to be a separate package anyway. I'm not saying you can't do it, you just can't use our resources to promote it. We've already seen how this story ends multiple times from other similar third party packages in the past. A shocking number of people will execute a shell script as root that they downloaded over HTTP. The maintainer eventually stops maintaining it, bitrot takes over and leaves people with broken systems at some point in the future. Then it's our fault, not because they ran a script from some person on the Internet. _______________________________________________ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
