Hi Jan,

As you already mentioned, I'm not sure it would be a good idea
to include it as the kernel patch extends the kernel<->user space socket 
operations in include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/ip_tables.h.

"ipt_account" is another story as it works differently.
The lastest patch seems to be for 2.6.19 / iptables 1.3.5,
though there is some recent activity on the project homepage.

I'm still surprised how many people are using ipt_ACCOUNT,
somehow it is magnetic to ISPs in central and eastern europe :-)

ipt_ACCOUNT is now ready for 2.6.29.
