We are still a small team trying to take on a lot. Additionally most of us are in college and finals |
| 12 |
are just around the corner (next week here). Since we are all very busy we haven't been |
| 13 |
able to sit down and set some dates or deadlines. |

After finals we should expect that much more |
| 19 |
will get done, especially on the documentation side. |

We are hoping to make acl's available to everyone, especially server users. We will |
| 28 |
probably come up with a baseline set of policies for all ACL/MAC implementations at |
| 29 |
some point, and then strive to get not only the baseline set for all implementations |
| 30 |
but also as many additional policies as possible. We are also still wresting with some |
| 31 |
policy logistics (like transport and updating). |
