Speaking about that, what would be necessary for IKEv2
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/ikev2) to be included into ipsec-tools
distribution? Would that be feasible? The point is that we are approachin=
g
to a milestone when we are going to freeze code to remove bugs and to
bring daemon closer in line with draft spec. This will hopefully make
IKEv2 fully compliant implementation of draft. But, after that I think
we'll do major redesign and recoding of IKEv2 daemon based on gained
experience (using as much as possible of existing code, of course).

Sincerely,
