Please use this issue for any discussion regarding a new website, including any requests or offers of help, including translation.

Please enter your comments below. Some initial suggestions:

firehol6
fireholv6
barbican (as in a fortification)
legiwall (as in a mixture of legible and firewall)

The first two show off the origins of the project but may be a little close to the original and lead to confusion later on.

This is the first major objective - inclusion of IPv6 support.

A fairly stable copy of FireHOL with IPv6 patches can be found here meantime:
https://github.com/mikemol/fireholv6

By fairly stable I mean no major known issues and a number of people have been using it without incident for a number of months.

Will create and maintain specific issues as required.

If you think you might be able to help out in some way, please leave a comment here.

Once we have a name, the code-base needs a review and updating as well as new documentation finalising. Will file separate issues as required.

Inclusion of the debian patches adds some new ports, the inclusion of /etc/default/firehol and the ability to wait for an interface to come up before loading the firewall (not sure what that adds security-wise). All needs inclusion in the standard docs and man-pages.

Please use this issue for any discussion around non-website documentation, including requests and offers of help including translation.

Please use this issue for any infrastructure discussion until the new hosting is up and running.
