What makes you think there are not maintainers of ipf ? Because there's
not been any commits for some time ?
Actually I'm not aware of show-stopper bugs in ipf, and I run several servers
(netbsd-8) facing internet, with ipv6 and quite a bit of traffic. No
problems with ipf AFAIK. the tools could be a bit smarter with ipv6
rules and I intend to look at this, but it's not a big deal for daily use.
