In the field of computer security, Libreswan is a fork of the Openswan IPsec VPN implementation created by almost all of the Openswan developers after a lawsuit about the ownership of the Openswan name was filed against Paul Wouters, the release manager of Openswan, in December 2012.[3][4] The lawsuit was later settled out of court. The Libreswan project has an active community of developers and contributors with regular releases. They can be found on the #swan channel on the Freenode IRC service.
