Yes, I definitely understand that, and I really intend to provide enough help to minimize the burdain on existing team members which don't care about that featureset. > > Is the grsecurity patch getting bigger or smaller over time? It's a bit hard to tell. Putting aside the various security backports (mainly relevant for the 2.6.32 patch), the size seems to have decreased a little since 2.6.39 (and risen in the 3.0 serie). Feature-wise, Brad Sprengler and the PaX team still add stuff, like the gcc plugins or hardening features like symbols hiding, fix bugs (for example in RBAC code), while few of them reach mainline.
