[flow-tools] flow-tools support for Netflow Version 9?

[Morgan, Chip E.]

Mark,
   Great. I feel much more comfortable investing time in working with a
package that is being maintained and has a future direction.

Thanks,
   Chip

Internally flow-tools should be able to handle a v9 like protocol.  I'm
hopeful the IPFIX wg will settle on a better or improved NetFlow v9 (like)
protocol and Cisco and others will implement the proposed standard.

flow-tools will support the IPFIX protocol when it is chosen.
