Hi,
The iptables-nftables tree [1] currently stores the iptables over
nftables compatibility support. This allows you to run iptables
commands using the nftables kernel infrastructure.
JFYI, my plan is to merge the iptables-nftables into iptables at some
point of this week given that it contains stuff that is scheduled for
3.13. After that merge, the iptables-nftables will be disabled.

Could you give some hints about releases of userspace stuff?
(libnftables, nft, new iptables...)
Is 3.13 a deadline for releases?
The initial release of the userspace libraries and tools will happen
by when the Linux kernel 3.13 is released, that should happen by the
beginning of 2014.
The nftables compatibility layer (the so-called iptables-nftables)
will be included in regular iptables releases, since it will be part
of that package.
Nice to see this progress. What are the plans/obstacles (if any?) for
migrating ebtables/arptables to nftables?
cheers,
Bart
