Leider nicht. 

1. firewalld is not a full firewall - at best it is half-finished but
released into the world as a genuine firewall.

2. All of us, including potential and actual defectors to *BSD's,
welcome good products. We like and appreciate IP Tables. To replace good
solid working software with a half-finished (and confusing) substitute
is not progress, not advancement and not an improvement. Some might
think it is not a good idea.

Please respect the fact that we really do like, appreciate and enjoy
Centos. Hence our desire that it is not degraded or Lindozed
(dumbed-down).
