Hey Gilles,
In support of netfow_v7, do you have any example records I can use for testing?
The header support and formats are already there, but I didn't have a v7 data
source for testing.

And for sflow (in fact for all of these), are there wire formats and file formats that
I need to consider?  Is there a generic strategy (flow-tools?) that exists that we
should integrate?

If you have any opinions on this, I would love to know, as that will help in planning
out this effort.

Carter
