I'm still fighting with OOM killer related problems at MM subsystem. ;-)

As one year elapsed since I proposed CaitSith for upstream, I'd like to
hear the status again. I looked at
http://schd.ws/hosted_files/lss2017/8b/201709-LinuxSecuritySummit-Stacking.pdf .
How is ETA for Security Module Stacking? Is it a half year or so?

If it is likely take longer, should I resume proposing CaitSith for now
as one of "Minor modules" except security_module_enable() check added
until Security Module Stacking work completes? Or should I wait for
completion of stacking work? I want to know it, for recent proposals are
rather staying silent.

Regards.
