    Indeed, this thread is timely. We (SUSE) opensourced the user-level
    AppArmor http://www.opensuse.org/AppArmor tools in January 2006
    http://www.securityfocus.com/brief/103 and
    http://lwn.net/Articles/166975/ and the kernel module has always been
    open source.

    We have been hard at work on making the code as CodingStyle-compliant as
    we can since then, with the intent of submitting it for inclusion in the
    kernel. We actually planned to submit it later this week, but in light
    of this thread, we cut a few corners and expect to post our first
    proposed patches here by about Wednesday.
