It downloaded eventually.
So looking at this quickly, basic question: is xtables2 different API 
wise from what we do today in act_ipt?
Second: Are chain names unique system wide? i.e at the moment we send
a hook and table selection?
The patch i have currently for the kernel tries to pursue an approach 
that maximizes code reuse - depending on your answer I may go the 
approach of having a separate act_xt and hope you can build on top of that.

cheers,
