Hi,
I am planning to split netinet/ip_fw2.c in a number of smaller
files to make it more manageable, and while i do this I would
also like to move the files related to ipfw2 (namely ip_fw*c)
to a better place.
Any objection to moving them to sys/netinet/ipfw2 ?
Also, I can't help noticing that sys/netinet/ contains 36
files related to sctp -- wouldn't it be the case to move
them (perhaps with the exception of the userland headers)
to a separate subdirectory ?

for that matter it would be nice to put ALL teh protocols in
their own subdirectories.

Yes, that would be the perfect scenario, but I don't think that's
doable.

SCTP can be moved because it hasn't matured enough to cause a
"moving nightmare".

Perhaps everything can be moved, if hardlinks or symlinks are
left in sys/netinet for those parts (mostly .h files, presumably)
which have too much legacy to be moved outright.
