I took a closer look and just sent out my comments, let me know if you have any questions. Once we get to a v3 patchset, I think it's time to reach out Oracle and try some interop with Solaris TX. Let me know when you are ready and I'll put everybody in touch to try to get some testing going. -- paul moore security @ redhat

For all of others, assume that I have incorporated those suggestions. I should get v3 out sometime next week. Thanks again, Huw.
