    Serge,
    
    I have just imported your series into the GIT repository where I have
    been collating the various recent related submissions at:
    
      git://vserver.utsl.gen.nz/vserver
    
    A summary of the submissions imported to date are at:
    
      http://www.utsl.gen.nz/gitweb/?p=vserver;a=heads
    
    I will endeavour to continue to collect and catalogue all vserver
    related submissions I receive, see on LKML, or get pull requests for, as
    a part of my efforts to merge this functionality.
    
    Sam.
