I have read the message. It just doesn't make any sense, sorry. The proposed design does *not* remove the mechnisms necessary to keep your data/programs to yourself. What the proposal leaves out is the mechanism to let others use your programs, while still keeping the programs and/or some data they operate on secret. Or at least this is what we want to achieve, but so far I'm pretty convinced the proposed design does that. (Well, with the exception that we don't support the TPM, which theoretically could help in the unlikely constellation that you trust the hardware manufacturer and the OS vendor more than the person who installed the OS. But AIUI this issue is pretty much orthogonal to the confinement/encapsulation discussion.) -antrik- _______________________________________________ L4-hurd mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/l4-hurd
