It is ready for Sarge and it would be good to have it. It's in RHEL4 already
and will be in Fedora Core 4.

Auditd is necessary for full SE Linux functionality. Recent changes have SE
Linux audit messages giving less information unless they go through the audit
layer and with the volume of some of the audit messages it's best for
performance and reliability to have them go through auditd.
Your message wasn't clear but seems to imply that you want to get involved in
SE Linux development. If so then please contact me off-list, there's plenty
of work to share.
