[K12OSN] Poll: Priorities?

[Jim Kinney]

I would be happy to provide some technical abilities to build/maintain a
client package with the needed modules for this. I'm looking at how to use
the kernel src.rpm or devel.rpm and create the needed binaries as part of a
package upgrade cycle automatically. It may be easier than I thought to
provide a kmod-nbd.rpm

As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to
consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they
please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.
