No, but I'll do it soon ;)

Sure, GRSecurity is a big change, I understand your point of view to
include it, but I will try to take a look on including the grsecurity
only as modules in a self package (ie. kernel-grsecurity-xxx.rpm) I'm
not sure if it's possible but I will take a look, this could be a first
step in that direction.

I also understand that many FB Modules ar econsidered unstable or
experimental, but if we only include stable ones, like standard VESA and
VGA modules, this could be nice. (We also need to build fbset RPM)
