25 I live the way you put 'friendly' first :)

27 regarding the past posts about the existing security team, I'm
28 thinking this project is suposed to build up some suite of
29 applications and configurations to let the administrator control his
30 security settings in a more easy way.
31
32 imo this does not clash with the security team's purpose; this project
33 will that the security team's results and make it into a more frieldy
34 suite
35
36 I'd be more than happy to assist in this project, or the main security team.
