Kernel Self Protection Project

Kees Cook has announced the KernelSelf Protection Project, which is meant to be "a community of people to work on the various kernelself-protection technologies (most of which are found in PaX andGrsecurity)". This is an outgrowth of his Kernel Summit talk about incorporatinghardening and self-protection features into the mainline kernel. "Between the companies that recognize the critical nature of this work,and with Linux Foundation's Core Infrastructure Initiative happy tostart funding specific work in this area, I think we can really make adent." He is looking for others who are also interested in doing some of this work.
