KernelTrap: Porting The PF Stateful Packet Filter

This KernelTrap article talks about what's new in pf, porting OpenBSD's pf to FreeBSD and developer reactions, and compares it with other packet filters.
"It's great to see that people from other BSDs are getting interested in pf, especially when someone with kernel programming knowledge is willing to invest the time to get things working. The more time I see others invest, the more obliged I feel to contribute to the port, of course. It would be great to get the basics working, so people can give it a try and compare the functionality and performance (which I'm quite curious about, too)."
