Title: Forum categories

I suggest two new forum categories
IDS/IPS  and  Feature Requests
Feature Requests get lost within other categories. Or maybe just use Github for those.
IDS/IPS is an animal all its own and deserves its own category.

Hi dcol,

We should keep all requests and bugs on GitHub, anything else will end up in missed follow-ups and lack of tagging and tracking abilities between code commits and technical on-topic discussion.

From the start the form was kept simple, but you are right it is time to make more room.

How about an "Intrusion detection and prevention" and a "Web Proxy" forum? On the horizon are also IPsec and OpenVPN, as well as Captive Portal and Traffic Shaping. And Firewalling...


Cheers,
Franco

Sounds good to me. It will help organize the threads better.

Okay, added Intrusion detection and Web Proxy board and seeded these with a post so they are not empty, archived (read-only) 15.x and 16.x boards and now everything is shiny... :)


Thanks,
Franco
