Bah.

You don't even point to evindences. You don't even specify a
list of reasons why you affirm this or a list of unresolved
issues.

This is completely gratuitous.

Your patch breaks other plugins, I already told you. It's imcomplete.

If you change the endianness of the address, you have to propagate the
changes to other plugins.

Stop ranting, send patches.

This is a community project, if you feel something is broken, contribute
it, improve it and fix it, or if you don't know how to make it,
try to convince anyone to get it done. This is how it works.

So far, your overall contribution to the Netfilter project is ZERO
lines of code by now and tons of long emails with lots of complains.

Disregarding others is not the way to go, definitely not.

I'm very upset with your attitute, it's not coollaborative at all.
