I quickly discussed about that with Jacob on IRC following your ping, and yes, my current plan is to start from the current src:linux git repository (trying to avoid too much duplicate work), remove uneeded stuff for us and add the grsecurity patch on top. That way we might be able to sync / cherry-pick stuff from src:linux every once in a while. If that's unmaintainable then we'll just completely fork. I didn't yet start the actual work, but I intend to do that in the following days/weeks depending on my work schedule. Regads, -- Yves-Alexis
