Actually I don't really care about the version number. I just want to make it 
clear that the instalation process is quite diferent. But I guess we can make 
it a 0.3 if we are clear about it.

I can set it up.

Unfortunately the sourceforge homepage is not a good place for letting people 
know what the project is about. I am not thinking of anything fancy. Just a 
simple place to host the FAQ and a README: I'll role something simple up.

Perhaps, but that configure script should do much more, like finding the 
iptables module directory and such. I already commited a simple change to the 
makefile to check the kernel version.

The current ipt_p2p is lacking support for the latest versions of the 
protocols, so we really need a new release out. For instance, it doesn't 
catch the latest kazaa. I am running the currentt CVS on three gateways and 
it seems stable.

I would point out to release a 0.3.0 during the weekend. Is it fine with all 
of you? Please update the AUTHORS file as you see fit.
