Hi,
Ofcourse there is a demand for an API as libiptc ( though libiptc is
not an API )
>>From what i read on the list, the main reason libiptc is to be
replaced is because it is too low-level.
I was wondering if there is still a reason to try and create a
HighLevel API for iptables, or because of nftables that idea is
worthless?
If the idea is a good one, i'd like to try and work on it :)

Kind regards
Yechiel Levi
