capabilities impletementation?

[Joey Try]

Yes, I wish to join you.

I have studied the mail you forward to me, maybe Watson plan to merge CAP
into MAC Framework. I also studied a little of MAC Framework in FreeBSD6.0, 
and found that there are not any cap_check entries, although there is also 
capability.h in sys/ directory! I do not know how Robert Watson plans for 
this.
