    Subject: FYI: TrustedBSD at BSDCan

    Mentioned in an earlier e-mail, but here it is more specifically -- several
    members of the TrustedBSD team will be at BSDCan in mid-May. You can learn
    more about the conference at:

         http://www.bsdcan.org/

    This is a pretty neat technical conference relating to *BSD -- very grass
    roots, and good content. Based on last year's experience, I can recommend it
    highly! We'll be presenting on two topics:

    - The Darwin/FreeBSD/OpenBSM audit implementation -- what it does, how it
       works, why you should care, etc. We'll be doing the first formal
       OpenBSM release shortly before the conference.

    - A presentation on the SEBSD work -- the port of the SELinux FLASK/TE
       implementation to FreeBSD, and experimental work to bring it to Darwin.
       This will contain some background on the TrustedBSD MAC Framework, what
       SEBSD does, how we adapted it for FreeBSD, and some ways you can use it.

    Among other people, Chris Vance, Scott Long, Tom Rhodes, Matthew Dodd,
    Christian Peron, and I will be there. We'll be participating in the FreeBSD
    developer summit, conference proceedings, BoFs, and maybe get a WIP or two in,
    and so on.

    Hope to see you there also!
