Nftables in jessie?

[Frank Bauer <frank.c.bauer@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Jessie currently contains linux 3.13, which includes the successor of iptables - nftables.

Unfortunately, the userspace tools (nftables) are still missing even in sid/experimental.

Is there a general plan to support nftables in jessie? As the release managers reminded

us recently, the freeze will be here in no time. I believe it is essential for users to be able

to test this new technology in jessie before fully switching to it in jessie+1.

Regards,

Frank
