That's OK. I'm all for structured engineering and processes and definitely
against ad hoc implementations. It's more important to me that everything is
forward and backward compatible than implemented haphazardly and ad hoc.

So as long as the public API is being worked on, everything's hunky-dory. If
there's a need for a quick fix, one can always turn to the newest version of
the IPFilter.
