Hi folks!

1.1.2 is meant as the last 1.1.x version to come out. If 1.1.3 comes, it will
not bring major functional changes, but rather important bugfixes.

For 1.2.0, there are currently planned:

- Move most lists to generic lists, possibly splitting them up for
different models. This will break on-disk compatibility and auto-update, but a
backup-restore will work.

- Optimize generic lists

- Real network access control as descibed in previous mails, with
socket-template and socket objects

- PM module overhaul, PM administration menues

- (maybe) Optional filesystem object redirection support, e.g. to provide
separate /tmp dirs for all users. There might be a separate module just doing
redirection. There are many problems involved with this.

- (maybe) Optional selective (per fs object with inheritance) disabling of Linux
DAC

- Port to Linux Security Module (LSM) generic kernel interception
interface, likely to be included into 2.5 kernel series.

- (maybe) RC roles time limits

- RSBAC ACL support in Samba

- (maybe) PLT buffer overflow protection

Please comment and add your own wishlist to be discussed.

Amon.
