Fixed.

 And we want to go to 4.6 pretty fast.

Let's try that in the next experimental upload.

So featuresets are still somewhat supported / acceptable?

They are still possible.  I think we don't really want long-lived
featuresets and will be more open to features that look likely to be
merged upstream.  The PREEMPT_RT patches are steadily being merged and I
would expect to be able to provide rt flavours without use of a
featureset patch in wheezy+1.

 would expect to be able to provide rt flavours without use of a

So, how to we proceed with the grsec flavour? We didn't come to
a real conclusion wrt to it.

I still very much want to see it merged and I'm still willing to
contribute to the maintenance, as is apparently Yves-Alexis (that's
what I'm reading of his question).

grsec will be long-lived since I don't think upstream will turn
sensible anytime soon. OTOH, if at some point Brad and the other
people behind grsecurity discontinue it, this would be a less severe
regression since the stoppage of providing a virtualisation flavour
like openvz.

Cheers,
Moritz
