Hope this project isn't re-inventing Douane. If not any argument on why prefer this?

Why not? Diversity is a good thing.

Not really, we're just having fun hacking code together and considering different approaches to the same problems Douane is facing.

I'm neither a contributor nor maintainer here (just someone interested in the project trying to follow the development), but figured maybe it'd be useful to drop a note as to why I'm interested in what's being built here and am not already using Douane.

When I evaluated Douane (admittedly a little while back), it was not easy to build/run (and packages were sparse), didn't have a lot of granularity (simply "Allow/Deny" vs the wealth of configurability Little Snitch for OSX offered), and required a custom kernel module.

@evilsocket I appreciate diversity of course and commend this project. Honestly I haven't even tried Douane but just heard of it, just wanted a comparison of sort on how opensnitch does better where Dounae falls short. And thanks @tianon

@xavier83 it's still to early to say that IMO, OpenSnitch is still in a prototype phase.
