I think the latest fwtk http-gw does nearly everything you really need, so
it is a good idea to implement similar features. But - i have to use _two_
http proxies on my firewall: squid for caching purposes and http-gw to enforce
security policy for some machines. And i don't like that much. Maybe it is
better to integrate http-gw features into squid? I'd like this way!

I don't think configuration file format is copyrighted ;) So more
compatibility is better.

And.. it _should_ compile on xBSD ;)
