Hi!
Quoting news item:
> As an alternative, for users happy keeping themselves on the stable
> 4.9 branch of the kernel minipli, another Grsec user, is forward
> porting the patches on [3].
>
> Strcat from Copperhead OS is making his own version of the patches
> forward ported to the latest version of the Linux tree at [4].
>
> The Gentoo Hardened team can't make any statement regarding the
> security, reliability or update availability of either those patches
> as we aren't providing them and can't therefore make any
> recommendation regarding their use.
>
> We'd like to note that all the userspace hardening and MAC support
> for SELinux provided by Gentoo Hardened will still remain there and
> is unaffected by this removal.
