That's the model. I'm not sure who copied whose ideas, KT or DWN.
Try the links on the left bar... KT/KC news (also summaries from Wine,
Gimp, Hurd...) or Kernel Traffic Home: Latest Issue.

Ah... AFAIK, the idea was to put in the kernel code that does
encryption. Not encrypting the kernel source itself. Like an encrypted
filesystem for example, encrypted block devices... For the kernel
itself to do encryption of other data. That would make the kernel an
encryption device. Some countries put problems on distribution of
encryption devices.
