Hi everyone,

This a very good news. Thanks to Semihalf to their commitment on this subject.
At Stormshield as a security vendor using FreeBSD we are highly interested in 
all subjects that enhance the security level of FreeBSD.
What is your target in term of timing ? Are there any plans to work on other 
hardening subjects (like for example improving W^X) ? Do you have any roadmap 
in terms of features and deadlines ?

We would be interested to take part to live discussions as a vendor if some are 
planned.

Internally we have some plans to work on this subject with deadlines by the end 
of the year.

Thanks to all of you for working on this subject,
Damien

| Any thoughts about having a live discussion on the ALSR/PIE enablement topic?
