[opensuse-factory] Apparmor and Novell Lays Off 250 U.S. Workers
An earlier article I read said the Apparmor team had been laid off. What's the score, is apparmor in line for the chop in openSUSE and if so what will replace it? May be development moved to a different group? Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...

Novell continues to be committed to the AppArmor security solution and will continue to ship it in future products. Its just that most development should now come from the AppArmor community, and we are of course pushing the kernel module for mainline kernel inclusion still. And there is one AppArmor developer still with the company.

Thanks, it would be nice to see it in the mainline kernel. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
