OK, thanks for the information and your contribution.
I am not opposing to your suggestion but in the same time I believe that this recipe should appear in a properly maintained layer, in the case your layer disappears tomorrow. As you mentioned this information should appear in the mainline meta-security layer. In that case I will use the recipe without adding it into meta-cgl because we do not plan to have duplicate recipes available in meta-cgl layer if this is not applicable.

Alexandru,
Regarding a few packages in category C&D.
I have latest samhain building as well as grsecurity (pax patches
applied against 3.14.12) in a branch in my meta-security tree. I have a
bit more testing to do before I was going to post them.
grsecurity and samhain aren't CGL specific and they maybe belong in a
more generalize layer? just a thought.
regards,
Armin

Obviously since this is a new registration and one that will look rather different from all of the other CGL registrations currently, those of us in the
CGL workgroup were quite interested to see this happen. Personally I'm also interested in this since it's the kind of thing I've been doing for a long time now and if I can, I'd like to help out. In particular, if you've got a list of, say, the category B+ items, that might be something I can do that will be independent of your work on the more active cat-A stuff. OTOH, cat-A is easy to work on since those are the items I saw when I was working with meta-cgl a month or so back. I know you guys are focused on your part of it, but if you had sort of a "here's how to help us" guide, that'd be awesome.

it an internal alias / distribution list for Enea?
