racoon is currently in the devel tree. Patches for ifup/ifdown-ipsec
to support pluto accepted. :)

That driver includes binary-only components.

Get the driver upstream! :)

-> extras, most likely. The greater demand for the !KDE !GNOME wm
is for XFCE, at the moment.

Yes, we'll perhaps include squirrelmail as a followon to the
inclusion of squirrelmail in RHL 8.0, 9, and FC1. :)

Seriously, we're already looking at Cyrus, so I doubt that we'd ship
courier as well in Core.
