Dear all: This paper might be of interested to TrustedBSD-centric folk; it's on = some new work we've been doing relating to capability-oriented security = design in FreeBSD. There's a mailing list for Capsicum hosted at the = University of Cambridge, which can be found via the Capsicum web site: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/security/capsicum/ Once we've done more iteration, improvement, review, etc, the goal is to = merge the supporting kernel features into FreeBSD 9-CURRENT. Thanks, Robert Watson University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory Begin forwarded message: > From: "Robert N. M.

Following that, the hope is to do a longer design = patterns paper on application structure and decomposition, but not much = done on that yet. >=20 > Robert Watson > University of Cambridge > Computer Laboratory _______________________________________________ trustedbsd-discuss@FreeBSD.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/trustedbsd-discuss To unsubscribe, send any mail to "trustedbsd-discuss-unsubscribe@FreeBSD.org"
