so this thread on wsfii is key:
http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/wsfii-discuss/2005-October/000374.html

and then it moved to this thread on the wsfii-dev mailing list:
http://lists.okfn.org/pipermail/wsfii-dev/2005-October/000007.html

I'm worried that not enough ISF-ers are getting this information of
where our tool fits in the big picture and our opportunities to work
with other groups.

For my part, I can help somebody integrate WiFiDog with CUWiN.  There is
already some doco on how to integrate 3rd-party sources with CUWiN.
I think it will be easy except for customizing WiFiDog to use IP Filter.
If WiFiDog works with pf already, I am more than happy to switch.
