Construction of a dynamic website for tracking kernel security issues. |
| 7 |
There are too many of them and too many kernels to do this through the |
| 8 |
normal GLSA process, and currently users are kept in the dark about |
| 9 |
fixed security issues. |

Tim had started developing a site for this ("KISS") but it was never |
| 12 |
finished and had the large downside that it relies upon an operator |
| 13 |
duplicating lots of information from bugzilla and the ebuild tree into KISS. |
| 14 |

Such a system would be able to automatically pull a large proportion of |
| 16 |
the required information relatively easily. It would offer functionality |
| 17 |
to allow users to sign up for security announcements and fixes for their |
| 18 |
kernel(s) of choice, as well as feeding the same info into a mailing |
| 19 |
list for all kernels. |
