Is anyone here aware that fedora is planning on replacing iptables
with something called firewalld?
It's an abstraction layer built on top of iptables and ebtables,
not a replacement.

A simple read of the project web site would have told you this,
and I encourage you to do some research in the future instead
of spreading misinformation.

Thanks.

This is not what it says in the feature page at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/firewalld-default#Detailed_Description

That says:

  The services iptables, iptables-ipv6 and ebtables will be replaced by
  firewalld. system-config-firewall in it's [sic] current form will also be
  replaced.
