[pkg-apparmor] [report] AppArmor BoF and discussions at DebConf14

[Holger Levsen]

Hi,

thanks intrigeri for the nice status update (and for pushing the BoF at DC14 
in the first place!)

I have only one little addition (below...)

to make this hinting more blunt: the freeze is in 4 weeks basically. November 
5th is the official(ly aimed at) date, but packages need to be ten days 
earlier than this (to migrate before the freeze). After that, getting stuff 
into jessie will not be impossible, but it will need manual reviews and if the 
diffs is to big the answer might as well be "no".

So if you want to get this in, hurry up, please!


cheers,
	Holger
