Today I've released the first version of libmackerel, a GPLv2 library for the manipulation and creation of MAC addresses.

The functions in libmackerel started as parts of Bluelog and Bluefog, but eventually got expanded to the point that it was worth making its own library.

As of today, the development version of Bluelog is using libmackerel, and Bluefog will follow sometime soon. With the libmackerel merge, Bluelog now has the ability to lookup device manufacturers based on MAC OUI (currently x86 only).

Not making a big deal of this, but Bluefog just got its version bumped to 0.0.3. This version features many internal fixes and improvements, as well as the start of proper signal handling in a multi-threaded environment.

Which all means it will (probably) work a little better.

Since it's the end of the world and all, I thought I would take the wraps off of my latest project.

Bluefog is the antithesis of Bluelog. While Bluelog is designed to quickly and accurately determine how many Bluetooth devices there are in the local area, Bluefog is designed to confound such efforts by generating large numbers of phantom Bluetooth devices.

To do this, Bluefog can run parallel tasks on up to 4 physical Bluetooth adapters, and uses real-world data collected from my Bluetooth scanning experimentation to seed the spoofed devices.

Give it a shot and let me know what you think.
