Is there a list of these bugs available anywhere? If not, what software =
is
recommended to import, keep track of, and document these bugs?

Features such as a protected stack should, IMO, be implemented as soon =
as
possible to keep FreeBSD heads-afloat right now in the security =
sense....
OpenBSD has implemented this already and there are many patches for =
Linux to
do the same... why don't we go ahead and shove some of this code into =
CVS?

Should I go ahead and start this up? If so, what are some ideas of =
things I
might like to put on it?

Kind regards,
