It's a huge piece of work, so while he's pulled in some minor bits, a lot 
remains left to review.  We plan to hold an NFSv4 ACL session at BSDCan, 
although I hope that we will be able to get quite a bit of it into the tree 
before then.  Rick Macklem also has patches to expose Edward's NFSv4-semantic 
ACLs via his NFSv4 server code (and possibly also the client side?).  Among 
other complex aspects to the change, the ACL ABI for system calls is 
significantly changed, there are significant VFS changes, and we need to 
review the merging of POSIX.1e/NTFS/SMB/CIFS/NFSv4/Solaris/Apple ACLs and make 
sure we ended up with a model that will satisfy application developers, etc.
