Issues with memory management and bios detection have been resolved, so now we have our first cut of a 2.6.22.9 kernel. It still needs further hardware testing since we've run into issues with 2.6.22.x kernels in general with our hardware here. I'm not sure I'll approve this in the ASL beta 3 roll up or not. I'll probably field this in asl-2.0-bleeding first. I also had a few users push hard on an OSSEC update to fix the timestamp issues which has been fixed in CVS. Likely this too will go into -bleeding for a bit so we can keep an eye on it.
I'll be honest, I never expected to have this kind of mixed user base with ASL. Generally security products go toward a more conservative, risk averse crowd. I'd say thats still the vast majority out there, but in this case I have people that are more than willing/demanding to field alpha quality file system code on production web sites. Kudos to you all. You know who you are, and I think the Time Shifting stuff is amazing too.
Other changes coming up in B3 include better control of email alerts, lots and lots of bug fixes, and some new modules around process monitoring and DoS protection. If you have ideas, requests, or comments on what we've put together so far, please let us know at
