Losing public grsec is really bad for the community. But I see too may posts talking about "the truth" and hard political stances. Grsec has done a fantastic job since the beginning. Some of it has been ported to mainline. Hopefully this will speed up the port to mainline. But why? I remember some discussions where Linus did not want to accept the whole patch as-is, without breaking it into smaller standalone pieces. I remember that some protection might have caused userspace changes. Sure, if it breaks with grsec, then there was a big problem at the beginning, but you can't just ignore everyone else either. Were there are some problems with the GCC plugins and licensing? Was it something about not being able to advance to newer GCC because it is GPL3, and somehow the plugins would have needed to propagate the license to the resulting kernel binary? Can anyone elaborate? Can anyone point out to some more unbiased tracking of what happened here? Some LKML link?
