For reasons I'm not aware of he chose not to. FYI- I am no NetLabel expert, and the pathset I sent out that day included the peersid changes. And since you were going to have to post a patch for that again, I thought it best you ported and reposted the entire patch again. > As a result I > keep posting updated patches backed against Venkat's latest and > incorporating the latest feedback. And let's keep this going like this on the selinux list. When all the testing is done and selinux ok's the patchsets, I will combine them and send them onto netdev. How does that sound? > > Venkat, can you please merge the latest my latest NetLabel > secid support > patch in with your next release? I would, but it currently is premature. As James says, let's get policy done, the design proven, and tested and then we will go to netdev with one patchset.
