Yeah you're probably right about money going to developer time
rather than certification, but being certified under the common
criteria can only help the project. It doesn't seem very likely
though.

Hey *, I was just on a conference call, so naturally I was
reading slashdot and saw that Linux has managed to get
certified
under the common criteria.

Almost no details there...
I know that trustedBSD is working towards that for our
beloved
FreeBSD and that many enhancements have found their way into
the
5.x line, but does anyone know if the team has begun the
certification effort or if not when (if) they will? I know
it's
very expensive, one article said several hundred thousand
dollars up to a few million.
I don't know of any plans to throw wads of money at the
certification
process. IMO, it would be better spent on developer time.
