Re: Hardened Secure Linux From Scratch book chapter proposals

Maybe we can pass this around a bit and see what happens.
-----
Forward:
Having thousands of computer system security articles available to read on the
web, this book was conceived to fill the demand for a modern all in one 
manual. Named after and based on Linux From Scratch, HLFS is a book 
describing how to build a hardened source based Linux operating system from 
scratch. This book aims to describe various problems and solutions that 
concern data privacy and system integrity on the Linux platform.

Audience:
This book is not for everyone. It describes in detail problems with 
programming languages, privilege access control for software applications and 
users, cryptography, and what to do with this technology. The advantages to 
reading this book would be in having an understanding of security from the 
lowest level, and being able to use all that information in constructing an 
entire system.

Also I made a new propolice hint with new patches. IBM added support for 
Gentoo's glibc patches, so I added them back to the hint. They cause more 
errors, but I think its a better design, and it is optional.

(I sent this twice because I didn't see it come up after 25 minutes)
