OK, I am removing LAU from the cc's, as this is now a technical
discussion rather than an opinion poll. ;-)

Are there any known issues with the code that the kernel guys might
bring up?  Seems like it has been stable for a while.  The only thing I
notices was that the indentation doesn't follow the recommended kernel
style.

I found your original RFC post to the LSM mailing list, I was thinking
of including a pointer to that, as everything in there still seems to
apply.

Also, I assume you are not referring to sourceforge CVS, because I
looked and there aren't any Kconfig patches.  Can you commit this to SF
CVS so I can check it out?

Anyway let me know when you have a patch you are comfortable submitting
for inclusion in the kernel and I will go ahead and post it.
