Yawning's mail below reminds me: I am considering removing the C implementation of tor-fw-helper from the tor distribution, and recommending Yawning's pure-Go implementation instead. But before I do this, I'd like to get some sense of whether folks are shipping tor-fw-helper today, or using it in practice.
Does the pure-Go implementation support NAT-PMP or just UPnP?
I still use tor-fw-helper when I hand compile Tor on obscure systems. Generally this means a Novena board when I need a newer version of Tor than is already packaged.
Also - does this mean that after many many years... that this new version of tor-fw-helper be enabled by default at build time? Pretty please? :-)
All the best, Jake
