[Ferm] FW: FERM based firewall framework

Hola:

     I've been working on a framework, FW, to create custom firewalls by 
abstracting FERM keywords into functions, using aliases and actions 
instead. The most valuable thing of the project is its API, which may 
help to unify rules for well known protocols (see lib/protocols.ferm) or 
even rules for protection from known attacks (see &PROTECT() in 
lib/lang.ferm).

     It is by far not complete (although functional in some contexts), 
but extending it shouldn't be too difficult, programming with FERM makes 
things really easy. It would be nice to know what you think about it, 
perhaps something similar exists already and I've missed it.

     You can see the code and some documentation in my github 
repository: https://github.com/emerinohdz/FW


Saludos!
