Hi there,

I am proud to announce v2.2.23-1-secure. The well known -secure tree by me.

Since I do this kernel we've upgraded all our servers of our customers at my
company to this tree without any major or minor problems.
The servers vary from just beeing a mailserver for 5 workstations to highend
servers for ~ 3000 users beeing proxy-, smtp-, pop3-/imap-, file-, web-,
firewall-server and ipsec gate.

-> The intended purpose is for production/servers/firewalls <-

o indicates work by me
+ indicates work by users
