I haven't been generating current ISOs for a long time now.  You're
right in that it's time to generate one, or to make another release.
If the release will be getting delayed much further, I will probably
put out a new current-based ISO image.

But I don't see this as a major problem.  It's trivial to update to
current right upon installing 1.0 off a CD.

I'll assume you mean RSBAC.  The short answer is: yes, but not soon.
In my opinion, it makes little sense to integrate RSBAC when there's
still so much room for improvement within the traditional Linux
kernel's abilities.

But I know that some people are currently using Owl with RSBAC.  We
even included a patch in our "dialog" package needed specifically for
rsbac-admin.
