    There didn't appear to be any opposition to the sb_kern_mount hook.  Any
    objections to committing the sb_kern_mount patches to the lsm-2.4 and
    lsm-2.5 BitKeeper trees?
    
    On a different note, it would be good if the remaining hooks (IPC,
    miscellaneous system, and socket/networking) could be submitted to the
    appropriate maintainers soon so that there is time for feedback and
    revisions before the feature freeze date.
