I have some "predefined policies" but I haven't ever tested them in a 
pure gentoo environment (I do not use gentoo in "production environment"), 
if you want them as startup and will provide the gentoo counterparts, I 
will send them to you (read the earlier __carefully__, if you are not 
able/not willing to provide them, then it was the last time I am doing 
this, I am not willing to support any of them and do any of the needed 
tests to work in conjunction w/ gentoo)
