Hi folks, I have bothered a little bit with the articles around Linux, Linux kernel and such on the Wikipedia. [1] I use Linux it on my router [2] and on my desktop. One of the reasons of the success of the Linux kernel is surely netfilter. Yet Netfilter is only miserably represented in the wikipedia, e.g. cf [3] with the current version, as for interlinking. It would be nice to have a better article about netfilter, at least in English. An svg-Logo, which could be easily pinned on illustrations like the ones you see at [1], would also be nice. In case the Logo is something like CC-BY-ND, it won't be accepted on the commons.wikimedia.org, but it will be accepted on the english Wikipedia! IMO there are enough tutorials on the web, the article should introduce netfilter and what it actually is and what it does, and how it scales, etc. It probably should be understood be people who created [3], though I doubt, it is even possible to write such an article. The diagrams I've found, are here: [4] [1] https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:ScotXW [2] http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/netfilter [3] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Firewall_software&oldid=467687854 [4] https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Netfilter PS: I can't find the option to disable HTML-eMail, sorry if the webmail sends html. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
