[Firehol-support] New firehol development

[Tsaousis, Costa]

Hi again,

I didn't know about these forks. I am, at least, pleased.
I'll be glad to join forces to one project.

About FireQOS: I wrote a small wiki about it and its usage:
https://github.com/ktsaou/firehol/wiki/FireQOS

Anyone tried it?

Regards,

Costa
