Packaging requests...
 - finalize stuff in /extras
 - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/AppArmorProfiles

AppArmor container support
AppArmor mode 2 seccomp support

For Oneiric:
Userspace tools:
 - O flip rate limiting bit when using aa-genprof
 - O does not offer to edit abstractions
 - O doesn't suggest to use variable (@{PROC} and @{HOME})
 - O suggesting community profiles
 - tool workflow
  - O is aa-logprof still viable? (replacement/rewrite)
 - O named profiles and binary globbing (all tools)
 - O P[Uu]x not supported
 - O some bug jj knows about that is hard to describe (and has fix)
 - Oish (needs breakdown) userspace needs to migrate away from needing compat patches (ie, use new introspection interface) -- need other bp
- O v3 tagging
- O [mdeslaur] aa-notify rate limiting/summarizing
- O AppArmor testing on ARM
- O AppArmor LXC integration
- O perl on ISO

Kernel/parser:
- O parser memory usage (patch pending)
- O ipc - to security-o-apparmor-dbus bp?
- network
  - O stage 1
- O extended permission
   - mount
   - chmod, chown
   - setuid, ....
- Oish (break into work items) introspection interface
- Oish (break into work items) dfa improvements
- O set load
- O rcu
- O v3 tag and keep semantics as we go forward
- Oish modularization of LSM discussion started
