Do you plan to port the userspace tools to windows using mingw? And what's the status? Is libnetfilter_queue working fine? I'm very interested, because I'm currently porting some commercial softwares to windows, including a firewall which uses libnetfilter_queue. And now we're talking about netfilter on Windows, let me ask: is there any known port to NetBSD/FreeBSD?? And for MINIX??
