posix1e -- POSIX.1e Discussion List
About posix1e	English (USA)
Welcome to the POSIX.1e cross-platform implementation mailing list. The goal of this list is to allow the various and sundry implementors of portions of the POSIX.1e draft standard to discuss the draft, as well as development issues including portability and testing. This mailing list is not officially approved by IEEE. POSIX.1e provides extensions to the standard POSIX C API and command tools that facilitate a more secure environment. These extensions may include ACLs, Capabilities, Auditing, Mandatory Access Control, and Information Labels. Not all of these facilities are appropriate in all environments, and as the draft is still a draft, there are mistakes and inconsistencies worthy of discussion. To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the posix1e Archives.
