So, how to we proceed with the grsec flavour? We didn't come to
a real conclusion wrt to it.
I still very much want to see it merged and I'm still willing to
contribute to the maintenance, as is apparently Yves-Alexis (that's
what I'm reading of his question).
grsec will be long-lived since I don't think upstream will turn
sensible anytime soon. OTOH, if at some point Brad and the other
people behind grsecurity discontinue it, this would be a less severe
regression since the stoppage of providing a virtualisation flavour
like openvz.
