(ipfw,netfilter,ipf ...), NIDS or any other servers or embedded devices. IPFC 
offers a protocol to collect data in secure way and a framework. IPFC offers an 
unified database format to collect disparate logging information for making 
correlation, alerting and reporting for example.
It features log collection for different security \"agents\", dynamic log 
correlation possibilities, and easy extensibility due to the generic database 
and XML message formats used.

We would like to move from sourceforge for technical reason (we don\'t have the
