While they are not maintained, PF works quite well for the feature set
our version has. There are still quite a few issues with NPF, primarily
documentation issues, but also some functional ones. It seems a bit
premature to deprecate IPF and PF in the current situation. That said,
they should certainly be considered legacy functionality.
